One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review

In this activity, students will review the concepts that they have learned thus far in statistics. The first part of the activity includes one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons. The second part incl...

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...

Secant/Tangent Line Connection

Students will explore a real situation by minimizing the distance between two points on a secant line; ultimately making a connection to the slope of the tangent line and the difference quotient. Students will explore this graphically, numerically, and analytically. An extension at the end allo...

Solids of Revolution

Students will investigate 3D visualizations of volumes created by rotating a function about the x-or y-axis. They will understand the concept and reason for the volume formula in order to be prepared for generalizations. Students will solve the definite integral by hand using the fundamental theo...

Percentiles

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile.

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...

Population Mean: σ unknown

Students calculate confidence intervals to estimate the true population mean when the standard deviation of the population is not known.

Normal Probability Plot

This lesson involves creating a normal probability plot for several data sets involving height to examine the appearance of such plots when the distribution is approximately normal.

Monopoly and Regression

This lesson involves analyzing the association between the number of spaces from Go and the cost of the property on a standard Monopoly board.

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.

Motorcycle Tire Balancing

In this activity, students will explore linear and angular velocities and the relationship between them. This exploration is based on using a spin balancer to balance motorcycle tires of different sizes. Since a spin balancer rotates at a constant velocity, the linear and angular velocities of th...

Make the Basket

Students will use parametric equations to model two physical situations: making a free throw (basketball) and hitting a home run (baseball). Students will begin exploring the models by using sliders to change to the angle and velocity of the shot or hit. They will then move the time slider to see...
