Texas Instruments: Introduction to the Central Limit Theorem

Curated by ACT

Students have trouble understanding the Central Limit Theorem (CLT). This activity is designed to show them what the theorem is saying. The students develop repeated lists of numbers from 1 to 10 and finding the mean of each list. : We then collect all of their means and use them to find the mean of this list of means. This is a quick way to find the mean of a large number of numbers while at the same time including the students in the process and increasing their understanding of the CLT.
