In All Probability: Investigations in Probability and Data Analysis
An all new, updated version of the classic GEMS best seller, significantly enhanced, with new sessions and added background for the teacher. There is now stronger emphasis on multiple ways to gather and analyze data, and on how to stimulate discourse and discussion to build individual and class knowledge.
If your students groan at the mention of statistics, or go blank when you bring up probability, you might ask what they want to be when they grow up. Wall Street mogul? The next Freud? TV meteorologist? Well, there you go: they'll be using statistics and probability all the way up the ladder. This unit makes these subjects fun, and makes real-world connections students will use all their lives.
