Seventh grade statisticians randomly select five states and then determine the mean area. The class then works together to create a dot plot of their results. 

Sal continues showing examples of finding the inverse of the function. Here he shows a subtle, but important technique of taking the negative square root of each side of the equation when solving for the inverse because of the...

Sal continues looking at function inverses in this video by showing two examples. In each example, he finds the inverse and shows the graph of both functions. Both of his examples are with linear functions, but his first example shows a...

Sal shows an example of finding the inverse of the parabola with a restricted domain. He alludes to a reason behind the restricted domain but leaves the reason for it up to the listener to determine.

Sal uses a real life example of exam scores to instruct the class on calculating an average. He further demonstrates how to calculate what future scores would be needed to attain a desired average score by the end of term.

A good explanation for blossoming mathematicians, this video explains the difference between average and central tendency, as well as arithmetic mean, median, and mode. Those who haven't grasped these concepts in algebra or those who are...

Continuing his conversation about data sets from the previous video, Sal introduces range, variance, and standard deviation as means of dispersion. Those who are advancing in algebra or who are beginning a statistics class will benefit...

Starting from a brief look at functions and the mapping of domains to ranges, Sal starts out with an intuitive sense of what a function inverse is. He then, using an example, shows how to find the inverse of a function and also shows how...

What a find! Here is a lesson plan, designed to meet sixth grade math Common Core standards, that focuses on the calculation of different measures of center for the scores from a penalty shoot-out competition. An independent...

Begin with an attention-grabbing activity: have individuals link as many paper clips together as they can in a two-minute time span. Collect the results into a data table, which they will then display in a graph or plot. They calculate...

Fourth graders explore the mass and length of peanuts by pretending to parent a peanut. In this mode, median and range lesson students graph their measurements and then use them to find the mode, median and range. Students discuss peanut...
