Biased Rectangles?	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Fathom	Lesson Plan	[1]
Students explore one example of how bias affects the mean. This simulation increases students' understanding of the significance of sample size on the calculation of the mean. Exploring t... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Binomial Coin Experiment	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Java Applet	Tool	[0]
Simulates tosses of from 1 to 60 coins with user-chosen probability of heads; compiles both number and proportion of heads, with theoretical and empirical distributions. Requires a MathPlayer plugin ... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Frequency Distribution Applet	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Java Applet	Tool	[1]
The applet calculates the event space of throwing six-sided dice and tossing coins. The user can select any number of dice up to a maximum of 4 and similarly any number of coins up to a maximum of 10... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
How Random!	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	TI-Nspire	Activity	[0]
In this activity, students use simulations and graphs to explore the common-sense notion that repeatedly ﬂipping a coin results in “heads up” about half of the time. First, students simulate an... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Law of Large Numbers Activity	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Java Applet	Activity	[0]
This is part I of a heterogeneous activity that demonstrates the theory and applications of the Law of Large Numbers (LLN). Part II of this activity contains more examples and diverse experiments. More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Quincunx	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Java Applet	Tool	[0]
A quincunx board starts with 1 pin on the frist row, 2 pins on the second rows, 3 pins on the third row, and so on. Multiple balls are then dropped onto the top pin. As the balls fall to the bottom, t... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Sampling Distributions	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	Java Applet	Tool	[0]
Choose from selected or custom-built distributions; collect thousands of samples to illustrate Central Limit Theorem. More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
Statistics Applet	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	JavaScript	Tool	[0]
Enter up to thirty pieces of data and have this applet calculate the sample mean, standard deviation, and confidence interval for the sample mean. Also, read a brief explanation of the mathematics in... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
What's Normal, Anyway?	Sampling Distributions (Probability & Statistics)	TI-Nspire	Activity	[0]
In this activity, students explore the normal distribution and several of its most interesting properties. First, they use a histogram of data from a binomial experiment to examine the general shape o... More: lessons, discussions, ratings, reviews,...
