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 Between Two Proportions

...nd the margin of error. Then, they use the 2-propZInterval command. Students find confidence intervals for differences in proportions in real-life situations and use them to make judgments about certain claims. Last, they determine required sample size, n, when given a confidence interval and mar...

Exponentialis ~ Logarithmus

In this story-style activity, students work through a step-by-step review of solving exponential equations using logarithms. At first, they are guided through process of using logarithms and checking them, with the help of 'Terry Plotter the mathemagician'. Then, students review identities and pr...

Graphs of Polynomial Functions

The activity begins by having students compare functions to introduce the concept of end behavior. Then they graph cubics and quartics, noting the respective end behaviors for positive and negative leading coefficients. Finally, they compare quadratics to quartics and cubics to quintics to discov...
