Shodor Interactivate: Lesson: Conditional and Simultaneous Probability
This lesson plan deals with conditional probability and the probability of simultaneous events. Problems included in this instructional activity tend to have solutions that are counterintuitive. This presents an opportunity to...
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: You're Probably Right, It's Wrong
In this activity, students perform a simulation to guess answers on a test and determine the experimental probability of passing the test. They then compare it with the theoretical probability.
