Some say that you can make statistics say whatever you want. It is important for learners to recognize these biases. Pupils learn about sample bias and the different types of samples.

Pupils watch a video to learn about different types of sample design and how to use technology to create a random sample. They discover different types of bias that may happen due to the sampling design or the questions. Learners use...

Emerging statisticians develop the ability to make inferences from sample data while also working on proportional relationships in general. Here, young learners examine samples for bias, and then use random samples to make...

In this probability and statistics activity, students determine when a collected data or a graph of the data could be biased.  The one page activity contains four multiple choice questions.  Answers are included.   

Seventh graders solve and graph 10 different problems that include various questions related to data on a graph. First, they create bar graphs to display the data given. Then, pupils determine the random sample of a population listing...

In this bias in graphs worksheet, students examine graphs and explain the data. They determine why the graph is or is not biased. This four-page worksheet contains approximately 6 problems. Explanations and examples are provided.

In this survey bias worksheet, students solve and complete 2 different types of problems regarding a survey. First, they identify various sources of bias. Then, students describe how to minimize bias in assessing statistical surveys.

Show your classes how different means can represent the same data. Individuals collect household size data and calculate the mean. Pupils learn how handling of the data influences the value of the mean. 

This 5-question psychology review provided by Sparknotes addresses sampling bias, correlative data, statistical significance, and more.

In this sampling methods worksheet, students solve the six problems using sampling methods and determining if the results are biased or unbiased.
