Description
In this clip, histograms and boxplots are used to display the results of a study into the number of hours gym members use the gym each week. This clip introduces important terms and concepts including range and median values, upper and lower quartiles, left- and right-skewed data, boxplot whiskers, and symmetrical and asymmetrical data displays.
Description
This clip investigates statistical data and data displays used in the advertising of a new gym. Follow along to find the inconsistencies in the statistics, graphs, and pie charts and discover more about how the media can sometimes manipulate statistics and displays to support their claims.
Description
Predictions underlie nearly every aspect of our lives, from sports, politics, and medical decisions to the morning commute. With the explosion of digital technology, the internet, and "big data," the science of forecasting is flourishing. But why do some predictions succeed spectacularly while others fail abysmally? And how can we find meaningful patterns amidst chaos and uncertainty? From the glitz of casinos and TV game shows to the life-and-death...
Description
In this clip, multiple surveys investigating the number of times Australians visit the beach each week are conducted and analyzed. Follow along as the means and medians are calculated for each survey. How survey data was obtained and the impact on the results and reliability of the surveys are discussed. Ideal for applying mathematical concepts to real-world situations.

It's time to make math sense of our surroundings! We'll start by collecting and organizing information from our daily lives. Students will learn how to interpret this information through visuals like lists, charts, tree diagrams, and graphs. The tour doesn't stop here, though; we'll move on to describing the outcomes based on probability, mean, median, mode, and range. The wold will make much more math sense after these exercises! Topics include:...
14) ANOVA: Lecture 9
Description
In this video lecture, Professor Naomi Lowe explainsAnalysis of Variance (ANOVA).
Description
This clip investigates how the number of people at the local pool changes over the course of a day. The data is displayed in graphs showing pool patron numbers during each two-hour time period. Follow along as lines and curves of best fit are drawn for the data and used to interpret the data. This clip explores parabolas, coefficient of determination, interpolation, and extrapolation.
Description
From the science of making choices, to the solving power of algorithms, mathematician Lily Serna reveals how the logic of mathematics can help you make better, smarter decisions. In the process, she steps us through some of its most important ideas, showing that far from being stuck on a chalkboard in a lecture hall, it's all incredibly useful.
Description
This clip explores the probability of seeing Australian animals on a wildlife tour and uses relative frequency to describe the chances of seeing particular animals. Collected data is displayed in two-way tables and probabilities of "and/or" events are calculated. This clip introduces and defines important terms like experimental probability, relative frequency, and complement. Ideal for applying mathematical concepts to real-world situations.
