Comedy vs. Action Movies Frequency Interpretation | Using a completed survey of male and female student interest in comedy vs. action movies, the students will create a two-way frequency table using actual data results, fraction results, and percent results. The students will then act as the movie producer and interpret the data to determine if it is in their best interest to make a comedy or action movie. As the Summative Assessment, the student will take on the job/role of an actor/actress and interpret the data to support their decision. |
Modeling Conditional Probabilities 1: Lucky Dip | This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to understand conditional probability, represent events as a subset of a sample space using tables and tree diagrams, and communicate their reasoning clearly. |
Modeling Conditional Probabilities 2 | This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students understand conditional probability, and, in particular, to help you identify and assist students who have the following difficulties representing events as a subset of a sample space using tables and tree diagrams and understanding when conditional probabilities are equal for particular and general situations. |
Medical Testing | This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to:
- make sense of a real life situation and decide what math to apply to the problem
- understand and calculate the conditional probability of an event A, given an event B, and interpret the answer in terms of a model
- represent events as a subset of a sample space using tables, tree diagrams, and Venn diagrams
- interpret the results and communicate their reasoning clearly
