Sampling and Experimentation

This unit addresses issues related to choosing a sample, including comparing a random sample to other sampling methods and investigating the variability inherent in a random sample. The activities involve comparing samples obtained from a block design to those using a random sample, explore why some blocking designs are more effective than others, and consider different stratification designs.

Statistics: Sampling and Experimentation Activities

Title
Random Samples Compare the results of the three estimation methods to show that random samples of rectangles provide estimates that, on average, are closer to the true population mean than the other two methods. Standards \| Textbook	3135	12
Trend or Noise? This lesson involves investigating aspects of statistical information reported in the media or other venues, aspects that are often misunderstood by those unfamiliar with sampling. Standards \| Textbook	3068	12
Blocking Introduction This lesson involves investigating the effectiveness of two mosquito sprays in a large tract of land by using two different experimental designs - one randomized design and one randomized block designs. Standards \| Textbook	3158	13
Effective Blocking This lesson involves investigating the effectiveness of two mosquito sprays in a large tract of land by using three different experimental designs - one randomized design and two randomized block designs. Standards \| Textbook	3079	12
Stratified Sampling This lesson involves determining which of three different sampling methods - a simple random selection design and two stratified selection designs - would be most beneficial in selecting a survey sample within a given context. Standards \| Textbook	3111	12
