Using Sliders and Parameters in Linear Functions

Students will have the opportunity to see the impact of the slope parameter m on a graph of a line in slope-intercept form by using a slider or by changing the values of the parameter. They will have the same opportunity to manipulate b. Questions follow to determine the degree to which the stude...

Chirp, Jump, Scatter

In this activity, students will find a best fit line for data graphed as scatter plots. Applications of linear relationships provide motivation for students and improve their skills and understanding of finding the equation of a line from two known points. Movable lines make this activity approac...

German Tanks: Exploring Sampling Distributions

In this lesson, students will estimate the largest number of a population based on random samples from the population, as statisticians did in WWII.

Stratified Sampling

This lesson involves determining which of three different sampling methods - a simple random selection design and two stratified selection designs - would be most beneficial in selecting a survey sample within a given context.

Standard Error and Sampling Means

This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.

Meaning of Power

In this lesson, samples are generated from a population for a particular hypothesis test, leading to the conjecture that the null hypothesis is actually false.

Confidence Levels for Proportions

This activity involves generating a confidence interval for a population proportion from a random sample of size 100 and considering how certain one can be that this interval contains the actual population proportion.

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...
