Standard statement

HSS-CP.A.4 | Measurement, Data, Probability & Statistics

Grades 9-12

Construct and interpret two-way frequency tables of data when two categories are associated with each object being classified. Use the two-way table as a sample space to decide if events are independent and to approximate conditional probabilities. *For example, collect data from a random sample of students in your school on their favorite subject among math, science, and English. Estimate the probability that a randomly selected student from your school will favor science given that the student is in tenth grade. Do the same for other subjects and compare the results.*

Unit

Females singing to be heard: Challenging long-held assumptions about birdsong through data visualization

Grades

5–8 & 9–12

Students will learn how data visuals tell a story. They will analyze real bird song data to try to understand why female singing behavior has been overlooked in one of the most common birds in the world. They will also gain a deeper insight into the scientific peer review process.

Alignment summary( Target)

Students use real data to construct a frequency table, then use the data to create and compare the results in a scatter plot and histogram. - Students evaluate the results of the two graphs, discuss how the two graphs provide similar and different information, and determine possible conditional probabilities with regard to female and male bird songs.
