Statistics can be manipulated to say what you want them to say. Teach your classes to be wise consumers and sort through the bias in those reports. Young statisticians study different statistical reports and analyze them for...

Are your classes ready for their final exams? Give them a test run with the 2018 AP® exam. The resource provides the six free-response questions covering topics such as confidence intervals, population proportions, and least-squares...

Reduce testing anxiety by helping learners prepare for test day. Scholars complete six free-response questions from a released AP® exam. The questions test a variety of concepts including confidence intervals, frequency tables,...

Students define sample, describe a random sample, and discuss what compromises a sample. They determine a sample size to estimate a population characteristic with confidence.

In this probability and statistics worksheet, students find compound dependent and independent probability of given situations. They identify the mean, mode, range and median of sets. This two-page worksheet contains explanations,...

Young analysts use real (provided) data from a class's test scores to practice using statistical tools. Not only do learners calculate measures of center and spread (including mean, median, deviation, and IQ range), but...

In this business and statistics worksheet, learners read real-life business problems, arrange data, and identify the probability method best used to determine the answer. They identify the type of random sample, draw stem-and-leaf plots,...

Your statisticians draw several samplings from the same data set, some randomized and some not, and consider the distribution of the sample means of the two different types of samplings. The exercise demonstrates that non-random samples...

Middle schoolers explore and design ways to collect data through simulations and random samples. They perform two experiments to determine the answers to various probability problems, and present the data/graphs in the form of a...

Space science stars journey through our night sky and take virtual photos of galaxies to investigate simple random samples. Higher math is used to analyze the data collected. Copy the evaluation/assessment questions onto a handout...

Analyze data using technology. Middle schoolers design data investigations, describe data, and draw their own conclusions. Then they select the best type of graph, graph and interpret the data, and look for patterns in trends. They also...

Here is a fitting question for middle schoolers to consider: Is there a relationship between grade point average and frequency of sending texts? Starting statisticians examine a scatter plot and discuss any patterns seen.

Students perform simulation of video games as they explore statistics. In this algebra lesson, students relate concepts of statistics and data collection to solve problems. They decide their next step based on the previous assessment of...

In this 4th grade statistics worksheet, students complete a total of 7 problems. An answer key is provided; problems are related to statistics.

In this probability worksheet, 11th graders solve problems using simple random sample, cluster sample, bias, population and systematic sample. They match the questions to its definition.

In this probability instructional activity, learners solve and complete 16 various types of problems related to statistics. First, they determine the probability of the statistics that are true as shown. Then, students find the...

In this statistics instructional activity, students examine different events after translating the word problems into equations and choose which event is most likely to occur. There are 14 questions with an answer key.

Students develop a list of possible outcomes as a method of finding probability related to a pizza statistics problems. They read the problems together as a class, brainstorm ways to solve the problem, and in partners solve the pizza...

In this statistics learning exercise, students solve and complete 10 different types of problems. First, they determine the probability of various actions described. Then, students describe an appropriate model for the number described...

In this using probability to solve word problems worksheet, students use statistics, averages, and even numbers, to problem solve. Students solve six problems.

In this statistics worksheet, students solve the probability of an event occurring using probability, permutation and combination. There are 17 questions with an answer key.

High schoolers investigate qualitative and quantitative data. In this statistics instructional activity, students gather data on heights and weights of people and graph the distribution. High schoolers discuss the differences between...

Chunking information helps you remember that information longer. A hands-on activity tests this theory by having learners collect and analyze their own data. Following their conclusions, they conduct randomization simulations to...

Making inferences isn't an exact science. Using data about salaries, learners investigate the accuracy of their inferences. Their analyses includes simulations and randomization tests as well as population means.
