Standard 5: Data Analysis

Resources

Benchmark

Indicator

  

A.  Create, interpret and use graphical displays and statistical           measures to describe data (e.g., box-and-whisker plots,   histograms, scatterplots, measures of center and variability.)

1.   Use, create and interpret scatterplots and other types of graphs     as appropriate.

 

B.   Evaluate different graphical representations of the same data to            determine which is the most appropriate representation for an    identified purpose.

1.   Evaluate different graphical representations of the same data            to determine which is the most appropriate representation for

      an identified purpose (e.g., line graph for change over time,          circle graph for part-to-whole comparison, scatterplot for       relationship between two variants.

2.   Differentiate between discrete and continuous data and       appropriate ways to represent each.

 

C.   Compare the characteristics of the mean, median and mode for a given set of data, and explain which measure of center best     represents the data.

1.   Explain the mean’s sensitivity to extremes and its use in     comparison with the median and mode.

 

D.  Evaluate the validity of claims and predictions that are based on           data by examining the appropriateness of the data collection and       analysis.

1.   Describe how the relative size of a sample compared to the            target population affects the validity of predictions.

 

E.  Construct convincing arguments based on analysis of data and       interpretation of graphs.

1.   Make conjectures about possible relationship in a scatterplot   and approximate line of best fit.

2.   Construct convincing arguments based on analysis of data and       interpretation of graphs.

 

F.   Describe samples methods and analyze the effects of method          chosen on how well the resulting sample represents the   population.

1.   Identify different ways of selecting samples, such as survey response, random sample, representative sample and          convenience sample.

 

G.   Design an experiment to test a theoretical probability and record    and explain results.

1.   Conduct simulation experiment to arrive at an experimental     probability.

 

H.  Make predictions based on theoretical probabilities and             experimental results.

1.   Analyze experimental data in relation to theoretical         probability.

 

I.    Use counting techniques, such as permutations and combinations,          to determine the total number of options and possible outcomes

1.   Calculate the number of possible outcomes for a situation,   recognizing and accounting for when items may occur more      than once or when order is important.

2.   Demonstrate an understanding that the probability of either of    two disjoint events occurring can be found by adding the       probabilities for each and that the probability of one   independent event following another can be found by       multiplying the probabilities.

 

J.   Compute probabilities of compound events, independent events,       and simple dependent events.

1.   Demonstrate an understanding that the probability of either of    two disjoint events occurring can be found by adding the       probabilities for each and that the probability of one   independent event following another can be found by       multiplying the probabilities.

2.   Calculate probability using area formulas when applicable.
