In this statistics cloze activity, students identify when to use median instead of mean (and vice versa), which measures of variation describe which types of data spread, when different measures of center are the same, and other details essential for summarizing data sets.
Level:
Need a hands-on statistics activity? This packet walks students through an independent statistics project: writing a statistical question to generate numerical data, choosing appropriate displays, describing distribution, analyzing all statistical measures, and more! Alternate version excludes MAD and IQR.
Level:
Worksheet includes mean, median, mode, range, interquartile range (IQR), and mean absolute deviation (MAD). First, identify what the statistical measures summarize: center or variation. Then calculate each kind.
Level:
With this worksheet, students will use sets of data to find the range, interquartile range (IQR), and mean absolute deviation (MAD). They will also determine which measures best describe certain data.
Level:
This 2-page worksheet presents four scenarios using plain data sets, stem-and-leaf plots, or dot plots. Find each measure -- mean, median, and mode -- then answer a question using the data, such as telling the impact of changing or adding a data values.
