Unit 4: Applying Knowledge

Navigation links: Back to mini-course homepage | Back to Unit 3
You have almost successfully completed the entire mini-course. You should now feel confident with identifying opportunity for probability and statistics implementation. As a result of this final Unit, you will be able to design a lesson that connects probability and statistics to a course curriculum of your choice. You will also be able to provide feedback to peers on their lessons and acknowledge how you can bring probability and statistics into your own classroom.
Lesson 1: Designing Your Own Lesson
Now it's time to apply what you have learned in this mini-course to design you own lesson.

Your Task
Pick from either Pre-Algebra I, Algebra I, Geometry, or Algebra II to create you lesson for. This lesson should connect to at least two different standards, one of which must be a Probability & Statistics standard. The implementation of either probability or statistics (or both) should be clear in the lesson. Your lesson will be uploaded to our Shared Google Drive. Please name your lesson as follows FirstLastFinalLessonDraft. All of the sample lessons that you have seen throughout this mini-course are also in this Drive for your reviewing if needed.

Lesson 2: Peer Review and Feedback
Each of you will be assigned two classmates to provide peer feedback to. Your assigned classmates will be emailed to you with the subject Peer Review Assignment.

Your Task
Review your classmates lessons and provide feedback. Please frame your feedback in three sections: (1) I liked/What works well, (2) I can see probability/statistics here, and (3) Have you considered this?
Please provide your feedback directly onto the Google Doc in the Shared Google Drive by means of the Comment option.
Once you've received feedback from both classmates, use this feedback to make any modifications. Please upload your final lesson to the Shared Google Drive and name it as follows, FirstLastFinalLesson.
Lesson 3: Final Reflection
You've reached the final lesson in this mini-course! Please reflect on the entirety of this course in your final entry in you Ongoing Learning Journal. Consider the following questions when reflecting: What are some major takeaways from this mini-course? How will you take what you’ve learned and apply it to your everyday practice in the classroom?
