These lessons will involve the students in investigating and understanding:
JC learning outcomes for probability
− decide whether an everyday event is likely or unlikely to occur
Mathsisfun: Introduction to Probability
Mathsisfun: The Probability Line
Mathsisfun: The Fundamental Principle of Counting
− recognise that probability is a measure on a scale of 0-1 of how likely an event is to occur
Project Maths: Overview of Probability with examples
KAPractice: Simple probability
KAPractice: Comparing probabilities
KA Basic theoretical probability
KAProbability using sample spaces
− use set theory to discuss experiments, outcomes, sample spaces
Project Maths: Probability with set notation
− use the language of probability to discuss events, including those with equally likely outcomes
Project Maths: Probability examples
Mathsisfun
Types of Events
Dependent Events: Conditional Probability
− estimate probabilities from experimental data
− recognise that, if an experiment is repeated, there will be different outcomes and that increasing the number of times an experiment is repeated generally leads to better estimates of probability
− associate the probability of an event with its long-run, relative frequency
Mathsisfun: Relative Frequency
