INTEREST PACKET
Students will consider relationships between two quantitative variables, such as the amount of time between eruptions
of Old Faithful and the duration of the previous eruption. As the Old Faithful example illustrates, knowing the
distribution of interval times isnt very helpful if you are trying to predict when the next eruption will occur. Instead,
we look for relationships among variables to help explain patterns and to make predictions. Students will use a
scatterplot to display the relationship between two variables, correlation to measure the strength and direction of a
linear association, and a least-squares regression line to model a linear relationship.
Topic Overview
Scatterplots and Correlation
Least-Squares Regression
Sampling and Surveys
Experiments,
Using Studies Wisely
Essential Questions
Chapter 3: How can we describe the relationship between two quantitative variables?
Chapter 4: How can we design studies: sampling and surveying, performing experiments and how to use
studies wisely?

Skills List
12. ED. Exploring Data: Describing patterns and departures from patterns
Exploratory analysis of data makes use of graphical and numerical techniques to study patterns and departures from
patterns. Emphasis should be placed on interpreting information from graphical and numerical displays and
summaries.

ASSESSMENT
Grading Breakdown
Grading Rubric
Chapter Quizzes: The purpose of chapter tests is to keep all students on top of their learning throughout the term,
and also to provide guideline to study for the term test as well as AP exam. Work needs to be shown for each
problem. Incorrect answers but well-written work with simple calculation mistakes will earn partial credit. We
will follow AP exam grading rubric.
Term Tests: At the end of each term, there will be a cumulative term test. Work needs to be shown for each
problem. Incorrect answers but well-written work with simple calculation mistakes will earn partial credit. We
will follow AP exam grading rubric.
Homework and Homework Quizzes: Students will be assigned homework every class and they are to have
completed it by the following class unless specific instructions are given. Students should take an average one
hour to complete their homework. Homework will be mostly graded by completion-based. Complete work earned
full point, incomplete work earns half point, and no or little work earns zero point. Late homework will be not
accepted. Students who are absent on the due date of an assignment, they must turn their homework in on the next
following class day to be accepted for credit. Homework must be done independently in which no show of work
will be considered incorrect. In addition, there will be Homework Quizzes on one of the previous night
homework.
Group Work and In-Class Participation: A typical class will be combination of whole class instruction led by
the teacher and group work led by students. Students are expected to pay undivided attention to teacher during
whole class instruction, and active involvement with group mates during group work time. Failure to meet these
expectations will result penalty in participation points.
