Modernizing High School Statistics with Mathematical Modeling (NCTM conference, Atlanta, GA)
Live in Conference!
High school statistics can become a dynamic mathematical experience by using modeling to explore real-world data. This session will demonstrate how viewing concepts like the mean and standard deviation through a modeling framework (DATA = MODEL + ERROR) makes statistics more coherent, relevant, and connected to the rest of the high school mathematics curriculum. Participants will use simple coding and algebraic notation to link statistics to algebra while analyzing data from the real world.
