As the students enter the classroom, I post pre-determined student groupings on the projector screen. The manner in which I group the students is not significant to me in this particular lesson, and I just want to have the groups pre-made so that I can jump right in. It is always a good idea to have the discussion with your students that any time they work in groups, they should be professional about their excitement or in some cases disappointment. My students work in groups often enough that they are usually very conscious about this, although I still take time to remind them from time to time. I’m not at all interested in having students get their feelings hurt because a fellow classmate responds in an unprofessional manner!

After instructing the students to sit with their teams of 3-4 students, I circulate whiteboards (one per group) and give the students their first tasks:

1) Everyone in the group needs a piece of paper

2) Brainstorm a group name that deals with probability

In my experience, the 2-3 minutes that you take allowing the students to brainstorm group names is well worth your while. They will have a great time selecting a name, PLUS it also forces them to revisit mathematical terminology associated with probabilities and/or statistics. They think it is fun and games – I think that it is great review… A WIN-WIN and a great start to the class period! (Sometimes, I give an extra hundred point head start to the best team name just to stir the pot.)

Unit 11 Probability And Statistics Answers

NOTE: For a fun twist, actually have the students play any 'dice' or 'card' probability problems that you create (if these types exist in your review). Having the students take a calculated risk adds value and meaning to the mathematics!

Unit 11 Probability And Statistics

  • Course Introduction

    • Free Certificate
    In this course, you will be introduced to basic algebraic operations and concepts, as well as the structure and use of algebra. Topics include linear inequalities, graphing, exponents, polynomials, and rational expressions. You will study basic algebraic operations and concepts, as well as the structure and use of algebra. This includes solving algebraic equations, factoring algebraic expressions, working with rational expressions, and graphing linear equations. You will apply these skills to solve real-world problems (word problems). Each unit will have its own application problems, depending on the concepts you have been exposed to. This course is also intended to provide you with a strong foundation for intermediate algebra and beyond. It will begin with a review of some math concepts formed in pre-algebra, such as ordering operations and simplifying simple algebraic expressions, to get your feet wet. You will then build on these concepts by learning more about functions, graphing of functions, evaluation of functions, and factorization. You will spend time on the rules of exponents and their applications in the distribution of multiplication over addition/subtraction.

    First, read the course syllabus. Then, enroll in the course by clicking 'Enroll me in this course'. Click Unit 1 to read its introduction and learning outcomes. You will then see the learning materials and instructions on how to use them.

  • Unit 1: Basic Algebra Concepts

    We begin by quickly reviewing the basic concepts you will need to understand as you begin your study of algebra. If you have taken a pre-algebra course, you may be familiar with some of these concepts. With practice, every student, regardless of background, can grasp these concepts.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 26 hours.

  • Unit 2: Solving Linear Inequalities and Graphing

    In this unit, you will learn to apply the concept of solving equations to solve problems involving linear inequalities. You will also learn how to graph a straight line, use different methods to find the slope and intercept of a line, and interpret slope and intercept. You will learn more about types of straight lines.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 20 hours.

  • Unit 3: Exponents and Polynomials

    Downloadsengineering design specialist. This section introduces you to the concept of evaluating exponents, converting scientific notations to decimal notations, and vice versa. You will apply these concepts to evaluating polynomial expressions.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 19 hours.

  • Unit 4: Factoring Polynomials

    This unit expands on what you learned in Unit 3. In Unit 4, you will learn to factor the greatest common factor by grouping and other factoring methods. Because factoring and distribution are opposite actions, you will be able to determine whether you have factored correctly by going in the opposite direction, which is distributing through multiplication.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 19 hours.

  • Unit 5: Rational Expressions

    In this unit, you will learn how to evaluate rational expressions and perform operations such as addition, multiplication, and division involving rational expressions. You will apply the concept of multiplying rational expressions to dimensional analysis, where you will convert units from single/dual unit of measurement to another.

    Completing this unit should take you approximately 17 hours.
