Influence and Outliers

In this activity, students will identify outliers that are influential with respect to the least-squares regression line. Students will describe the role of the location of a point relative to the other data in determining whether that point has influence on the least-squares regression line.

Is it Rare?

Students use the Poisson distribution to determine the probabilities for various numbers of hurricanes hitting the United States in a given year. Students will also explore the graph of the Poisson distribution and how it behaves.

One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review

In this activity, students will review the concepts that they have learned thus far in statistics. The first part of the activity includes one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons. The second part incl...

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size using the test statistic and the critical value. They also find the area under the curve to find the p value. Then, students will see how the result would change if they used a one-percent significance level or smaller sample size. An op...

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.

Resampling

This lesson involves approximate sampling distributions obtained from simulations based directly on a single sample. The focus of the lesson is on conducting hypothesis tests in situations for which the conditions of more traditional methods are not met.

Transforming Univariate Data

This lesson involves square root, logarithmic, square, and exponentiation transformations of skewed univariate data using a given data set.

How Many?

Students will explore Bernoulli probabilities. They will use them to calculate the probabilities of various single and cumulative events. They will also explore the Bernoulli probability distribution.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many

Transforming Relationships

In this activity, students will assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot. They will also calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set. Students will then learn to transform one or two variables in the relationship to creat...
