Content Objectives

  • Students will pose and answer a statistical question based on their lived experience by designing an experiment, collecting data, and analyzing data.
  • Students will make use of structure (MP7) to connect visual representations of data sets and reason abstractly and quantitatively (MP2) by interpreting values in the given contexts.[23]
  • Students will create and interpret data displays such as histograms, dot plots, and box plots as well as calculate and interpret measures of center (mean and median) and measures of variability (interquartile range and mean absolute deviation).
  • Students will construct and interpret two-way tables using survey data.
  • Students will represent bi-variate data as scatterplots, determining the line of best fit, its equation and residuals.
