Data Analysis and Probability

This is a representative list of topics covered in Data Analysis and Probability - however all programs will be customized for the individual student.


  High School

  • Differences among various kinds of studies and inferences that can be drawn from them
  • Characteristics of well-designed studies
  • Measurement data and categorical data
  • Univariate and bivariate data
  • Histograms, parallel box plots, and scatter plots
  • Understanding basic statistics
  • Distinction between a statistic and a parameter
  • Univariate and bivariate measurement data
  • Bivariate data where at least one variable is categorical
  • Linear transformations of univariate data and their affects
  • Trends in bivariate data
  • Simulations to explore the variability of sample statistics from a known population
  • Sampling distributions
  • Understand how sample statistics reflect the values of population parameters
  • Sampling distributions as the basis for informal inference;
  • Statistical techniques used to monitor process characteristics
  • Sample space and probability distribution
  • Simulations to construct empirical probability distributions
  • Expected value of random variables
 

  Middle School

  • Characteristics shared by two populations
  • Different characteristics within one population
  • Graphical representations of data
  • Mean and interquartile range
  • Data sets and their graphical representations
  • Develop and evaluate inferences and predictions that are based on data
  • Observation of populations using samples
  • Relationships between two characteristics of a sample
  • Complementary and mutually exclusive events
  • Proportionality
