An Introduction to Elementary Statistics

Here is a nice activity about recognizing the difference between a statistical question and answer and one that anticipates a fixed answer. From this, your future statisticians will develop an understanding of variability and be able to...

Here is a turnkey instructional activity that walks young statisticians through the development and uses of conditional probability. From dice games to surveys, Venn diagrams to frequency tables, the class learns how a given can effect...

Would you recognize a statistical question if you saw one? A video lesson introduces scholars to the branch of mathematics called statistics. Using dot plots and other data representations, the lesson instructor analyzes the data in...

Sometimes the measures of center don't give us enough information. The spread of the data can tell statisticians much more about the data set. A video lesson, part of a statistics video series, describes different measures of spread such...

If you know how much carbon dioxide you produce in one breath, can you figure out how much you produce in one month? Socratica helps solve multi-step unit conversion problems. The video walks through how to set up these challenges and...

Variable expressions can take many shapes and forms. Learners review the different components of many different variable expressions in a straightforward video lesson. After introducing vocabulary, the instructor uses context to write...

The concept of equality can be harder to understand than it seems. Help your classes by showing a video on the concept of equal expression. Of course, equal expressions create an equation, and that is the conclusion scholars make by the...

While some branches of science refer to it as dimensional analysis and others as unit conversions, both terms mean the same thing. Socratica presents a video explaining the basics of this topic discussing inches-to-feet conversion as...

Sal solves an example for finding the rate of change of the height of water in a cone at a specific point when it is being filled at a given rate. In this video, Sal reviews the volume of a cone and the chain rule and then, uses these to...

Students explore the concepts of mean, median, and mode. They develop an understanding and familiarity with these concepts. Students explore mean and median in an efficient way. Students explore three different measures of center.
