Basic Maths - Statistics DVD

The Basic Math series covers basic math problems from addition subtraction multiplication and division of whole numbers fractions and decimals to percentages ratios and proportions as well as exponents powers intro to geometry graphing number theory and patterns problem solving statistics and simple equations. Why are students not embarrassed when they say I can't do math? You rarely hear from a high school student that I can't do history or I can't do English because they can't read. Why do we accept that some students just don't have the aptitude for math while we... assume that everyone has the aptitude to read? Basic Math is taught by Murray Siegel of Marietta Georgia. Dr. Siegel holds his doctorate in Mathematics Education and has taught math since 1974. He has received the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematic Teaching is designated as a Master Teacher by the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation and was named by Kentucky Educational Television as the Best Math Teacher in America. In Dr. Siegel's eyes if you can't do math you should be just as embarrassed as someone who cannot read. Now there's no need to be embarrassed anymore. This series is the easiest way to become mathematically literate. Statistics In this lesson we introduce the graphing calculator which has made possible the study of statistics earlier in a student's academic career. Statistics allows the student to see the usefulness of mathematics. Here statistics is introduced using sets of data. The data is analyzed to measure tendency and variation. The concept of outlier is introduced. The box plot a graphic display of data is used to compare sets of data. Qualitative analysis of data is discussed. You Will Learn To find the mean of a set of numbers. To find the median of a set of numbers. Why the median is a better measure of tendency when the data contain extreme values. To compute the range of a set of data. [show more]
