F Distribution

Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...

Exploring the Normal Curve Family

Students will investigate the relationship of the equation of a normal curve to its graph. They will use a slider to change the values of two parameters, m and s, to investigate their effects on the normal curve, noting in particular that m represents the location of the mean and that s represent...

Sampling

Students learn about each of the four types of random sampling methods and use the randInt command to find each kind of sample from a given population.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling_1

Goodness-Of-Fit

Students test claims of whether given distributions "fit" theoretical distributions. Students will work through two problems, one in which the theoretical proportions of each category are the same and one in which they are not. Students will use spreadsheets to calculate test statistics and the I...
