Statistics & Probability

Advanced

Learn data analysis, measures of central tendency, and basic probability concepts.

Statistics and Probability

Statistics is the science of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. Probability is the study of chance and uncertainty. Together, they help us make sense of data and make informed decisions.

Data Collection and Organization

Learn about different types of data (qualitative vs. quantitative, discrete vs. continuous) and methods for collecting and organizing data including tables, charts, and graphs.

Measures of Central Tendency

Master the calculation and interpretation of mean, median, and mode. Understand when each measure is most appropriate and how outliers affect these measures.

Measures of Spread

Learn about range, variance, and standard deviation. Understand how these measures describe the variability in a dataset.

Basic Probability

Introduction to probability concepts including sample spaces, events, and the probability of simple and compound events. Learn about independent and dependent events.

Data Visualization

Learn to create and interpret various types of graphs and charts including histograms, box plots, scatter plots, and bar graphs.
