Center and Spread

Students will recognize that the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) are two ways to measure center and spread.

Confidence Levels

Students will interpret a confidence level as the average success rate of the process used to produce an interval intended to contain the true mean of the population. They will recognize that as the confidence level increases, on average, the confidence interval increases in width.

Assessing Normality

In this activity, students will learn four characteristics of a normal curve: the distribution is symmetric and mound-shaped; the mean and median are approximately equal; the distribution meets the 68-95.5-99.7 rule; and the normal probability plot is linear. They will use these to determine if a...

Difference in Means

This activity involves investigating whether a difference really seems to exist between two sample means.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/difference-in-means

Graphical Analysis

Students will analyze graphs of polynomials finding intervals over which the function is increasing or decreasing and positive or negative, as well as the function’s relative minimum and maximum values and x- and y-intercepts.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphical-analysis

The Area Between

Students will find the area between two curves while determining the required amount of concrete needed for a winding pathway and stepping stones.

Influencing Regression

This lesson involves a least-squares regression line fit to a set of nine values.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/influencing-regression

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.
