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...

What’s Normal, Anyway?

In this activity, students explore the normal distribution and several of its most interesting properties. First, they use a histogram of data from a binomial experiment to examine the general shape of a normal curve. Then, they use a dynamic illustration to make observations, using sliders to ch...

NASA - Maintaining Bone Mineral Density

In this activity students perform an appropriate test to determine the answer to the question "Is using the iRED exercise method significantly better than using the treadmill and bicycle in maintaining bone density?"
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--maintaining-bone-mineral-density

Means With Confidence

Students estimate the true mean of a population when the standard deviation is known by finding the sample mean, margin of error and confidence interval.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/means-with-confidence_1

Re-Expressing Data

The students will learn to re-express data as a linear relationship even though the raw data does not fit a linear model. Students will learn important concepts involving data transformation and re-expression.
