Inference for Two-way Tables

Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.

Inference for Correlation and Regression

In this activity, students test if a significant relationship exists between a bivariate data set, and then calculate the confidence and predictive intervals. They also improve the interval-prediction capabilities by automating the process.

Shortest Distance Problem

This is a great follow-up to the Introduction to Properties in Reflections. Students may have trouble producing a scaled drawing. Using a scale of 1 to 5 works well. See the figure below for a possible scaled construction.

Law of Large Numbers: Adding It Up

In this activity, students examine the relationship between relative frequency and theoretical probability to understand the Law of Large Numbers. They will explore the concept of independent events. They will also discern the difference between relative and cumulative frequencies.

Law of Large Numbers: A Weighty Decision

In this activity, students will explore the Law of Large Numbers. By examining unfair models, they will expand their understanding of probability. They predict the weighting of an unfair model by analyzing experimental data and distributions. They will also formulate and test a hypothesis on the ...

Perimeter of a Rectangel with Fixed Area

Students will investigate the relationship between the base of a rectangle with area of 35 or 36 and its perimeter.

Percentiles - IB

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile. In doing so, students will learn how to use the Normal CDF and Inverse Normal commands on t...

Perimeters, Areas, and Slopes - Oh, My!

Students create geometric figures, and use analytic and coordinate geometry to investigate their attributes. They go through the process of proving that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

It's a Two-Way Street

Students will be introduced to two-way tables by calculating marginal and conditional distributions using formulas in a spreadsheet.

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Sharpshooter

It is believed that an unusually high occurrence of cancer in a small area may represent a "cancer cluster." Because this is rare, it is more likely to be a case of "Texas Sharpshooting." For example, suppose a person randomly shoots a gun several times at the side of a barn and draws a circle ar...

Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

This activity uses distance measures to investigate the relationship between a point in the plane and the distance to the endpoints of a segment. Students will investigate the implication these relationships have for the position of the point in the plane.

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - Outliers

In "Take Out," Amita and Charlie help the FBI track financial transfers from the US to Mexico . There are so many transfers that it is difficult to find the specific transfer. Charlie explains that it is 'a matter of using a target-specific optimization model. Something called Outlier Detection.'...

Forecasting

Students use regression to forecast values from a data. They study exponential smoothing. They also use the program FORECAST to automate a multiplicative model.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forecasting

F Distribution

Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/f-distribution

Properties of Parallelograms

In this activity, students go through the process of proving a quadrilateral to be a parallelogram. They understand the various characteristics of a parallelogram.

Properties of Quadrilaterals

This activity focuses on the properties of special quadrilaterals.

Estimating and Finding Confidence Intervals

In this activity, students estimate statistical measures and find confidence intervals.

Properties of the Centers of a Triangle

Students investigate the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle. This activity explores interior angles, and their relationship with the exterior angles of a triangle.

Does a Correlation Exist?

Students determine, by examining a graph, if a data set has a positive or negative correlation coefficient.

Properties of Parallel Lines with Cabri Jr.

Cabri Jr. activity to study the properties of parallel lines.

How Far Am I Off?

Students calculate a confidence interval using the chi-square distribution to estimate a population variance.

Points on a Perpendicular Bisector

Students will explore the relationship between a line segment and its perpendicular bisector. Once the concept of a point that is equidistant from two points is illustrated, extensions including isosceles triangles, kites, and chords in a circle may be explored.
