Unit 1: Learning Targets
Priority Standards
1A.1-4
- I can analyze the four main characteristics of the distribution of quantitative values: Shape, Center, Spread, and Unusual Features (Outliers and Gaps).
1C.1
- I can compare two distributions, contrasting their measures of center and spread.
1C.2-4
- I can compare multiple distributions, comparing clusters, gaps, outliers, shapes, and other unusual features.
3C.1
- I can recognize, and test for, a normal distribution.
- I can analyze normal distributions to determine properties.
3C.2-3
- I can use the z-table and use a normal distribution to model real-life situations.
Supporting Standards
1B
- I can calculate measures of center (mean and median) and measures of spread (standard deviation and interquartile range).
- I can calculate a z-score and use it to measure a value's relative position in a distribution.
- I can tell what effect changing units will have on measures of center and spread.
