The home stretch! You have made it to second semester Grade 12. For some of you this will be your only Grade 12 math and for others you will be taking all three of them. BE WARNED!!!! Although the content of this course is not as challenging in complexity as the other two Grade 12 math courses, that does NOT AT ALL mean that it isn't still hard and A LOT OF WORK!!!!!!!!!!
Units to be covered:
1. Permutations and Combinations (get your thinking caps on!)
3. Probability
4. One variable statistics
5. Two variable statistics
6. Culminating Project
See the course outline for additional information.
Here are some extra links for data sources, give them a try: Open Canada, Open Canada 2, Open Ontario

Suggestions for Analysis:
Analyzing the Variables Individually
Before comparing the variables in a scatter plot, make sure your audience understands the individual variables. What do they represent? How are they distributed? Use histograms, box-whisker plots, measures of central tendency and measures of spread. When using various measures remember that you are describing a variable. Keep it in context.
Specific examples might be interesting/helpful.
If you have time series data, what does a broken line plot of your data against the time look like? Is there a lot of fluctuation? Is there a steady increase or decrease?
What can you learn from the line of best fit.
It is not your goal to simply include lots of graph and calculations, but rather to use these tools to learn about the problem you are studying.
Comparing the Variables
You should have at least two variables you can compare using a scatter plot. Create a line/curve of best fit. Consider the coefficient of determination (r2). Consider the meaning of the equation. Where relevant explain the meaning of the slope and the y-intercept. What does it mean if a point is above/below the line? Discuss the type of correlational relationship you believe to be involved and why. These could include cause and effect, commoncause factor, reverse cause-and- effect, bi-directional cause-and-effect, or accidental relationship.
Consider any extraneous / uncontrolled variables that may be affecting the correlation.
For non-correlations (or weak correlations), discuss why you feel there was no correlation.
