Appendix
The following two California Standards for Algebra II address several different kinds of probability.
18.0 Students use fundamental counting principles to compute combinations and permutations.
19.0 Students use combinations and permutations to compute probabilities.
In addition to the California Standards, our school district is putting a lot of focus this year on the new Common Core Standards. Several development days are already set aside for staff instruction and implementation. There are six standards for probability and statistics listed on the Common Core State Standards Initiative website. They are presented below.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.A.1 Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.A.2 Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.B.3 Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.B.4 Use data from a sample survey to estimate a population mean or proportion; develop a margin of error through the use of simulation models for random sampling.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.B.5 Use data from a randomized experiment to compare two treatments; use simulations to decide if differences between parameters are significant.
CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.B.6 Evaluate reports based on data.
