Wrap-Up: Standard Deviation, Variance, Populations and Samples
Lesson Outline
In order to complete the section on Statistics for Describing and Comparing Data and Datasets, we reviewed the principal concepts involved, such as Standard Deviation, Variance, and went further back and discussed the definitions – and implications – of the mean, median, midrange, and mode of a dataset. Today's lesson wrapped up the chapters on the basics of statistical tools, and as of tomorrow we shall put these tools to use in exploring other fields of Statistics.

Lesson Comments
Jared was far less focused today than he was yesterday. I managed to get him to concentrate partially by engaging him in another game that involves probabilities. But it was a game with which he was familiar, and it was a tad difficult to get him to follow the rules that would highlight how the rules of probability work. I then tried to conclude class by wrapping up the statistical tools section.
