Armspans
Young mathematicians collect data on the arm spans of classmates. Then they sort the data by measures of center, spread, and standard deviation. Finally, they compare groups, such as boys and girls, to interpret any differences.

Interpreting Statistical Measures—Class Scores
Explore the effect of outliers through an analysis of mean, median, and standard deviation. Your classes examine and compare these measures for two groups. They must make sense of a group that has a higher mean but lower median compared...
Curated OER
Measuring Dispersion
Students compute the standard deviation for a given set of data. In this measuring dispersion lesson, students compute the mean, and then the distance from the mean for each data point. They find the standard deviation of the data.
