This resource consists of a Java applet and expository text. The applet simulates a random sample from a Pareto distribution, and computes standard point estimates of the shape parameter. The bias and mean square error are also computed.

Passwords are essential to protecting our private information from others. Use this lesson to explore some basic probabilty behind password options and how easily they can be guessed! This lesson provides an intro into cybersecurity and its vocabulary, as well as incorporates low prep activities you can modifiy to fit your needs.

This video is part of the Learn and Grow with WHRO TV series. Watch Amanda Knighton teach about creating and analyzing pictographs.

This resource consists of a Java applet and expository text. The applet simulates the arrivals in a Poisson process during a time interval. The length of the interval and the rate of the process can be varied. The applet illustrates the Poisson distribution and a special case of the central limit theorem.

This resource consists of a Java applet and expository text. The experiment consists of rolling 5 fair dice. The random variable of interest is the type of hand.

This resource consists of a Java applet and expository text. The applet simulates the basic poker experiment of dealing 5 cards from a standard deck. The random variable of interest is the type of hand.

Predicting the likelihood of outcomes and representing probability as a number. Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the  Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This resource consists of a Java applet and Expository text. The applet simulates the probability plot that compares the empirical quantiles of a sample from a sampling distribution to the distribution quantiles of a test distribution. The sampling distribution, test distribution, and sample size can be specified.

Determining and representing outcomes in a simple event.
