NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "The Art of Reckoning" - Spies Like Us

In "The Art of Reckoning," Charlie discusses the security of a prison. "It's a hyper-secure system, but prisoners have nothing to do except think about how to crack it. Like two opposing armies." Charlie explains that analyzing such a situation involves determining the 'probabilities of penetrati...

Measure Up!

In this activity, students' create a plot showing the heights of some of their classmates. They determine the extreme values and the median for the height data and construct a box-and-whisker plot to summarize the height statistics.

Survey Project

Students survey other students (numerical and non numerical data) and calculate measures of central tendency (if possible) of data and make regular box-an-whisker plots and outlier box-and-whisker plots to analyze the data.
