Discover how to calculate the expected value of a random variable. In the seventh installment of a 21-part module, young mathematicians develop the formula for expected value. They connect this concept the dot product of vectors.

Domain can be a tricky topic, especially when you relate it to context, but here is a lesson that provides concrete examples of discrete situations and those that are continuous. It also addresses where the input values should begin and...

Patterns in polygons lead to patterns in polynomials. Presented with a series of polygons, individuals create polynomial expressions to represent their patterns. The algebra project consists of nine problems that incorporate polynomial...

It takes a lot of planning to achieve a random result! Learners compare results of random assignment, and conclude that random assignment allows results to be attributed to chance. They also realize the set of random means...

Exponentially increase your pupils' understanding of exponents with an activity that asks them to explore the meaning of exponential notation. Scholars learn how to use exponential notation and understand its necessity. They use negative...

Students identify the standard deviation. In this statistics lesson, students find the mean distribution and calculate the percent of deviation from the mean. They observe this change on the Ti calculator.

Students analyze sampling from different population. In this statistics lesson plan, students define the meaning of sample sizes and what causes an increase or decrease. They graph their data on the Ti calculator and draw conclusion from...
