Honors/AP Statistics is the equivalent of a one-semester, introductory, non-Calculus-based college course in Statistics.
The course is to be an introduction for students “to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.”
These are conveyed through four broad themes: 1) Exploring Data, 2) Sampling & Experimentation, 3) Anticipating Patterns, and 4) Statistical Inference
(Quote from The College Board’s AP Statistics Course Description)
To meet the requirements of the College Board Advanced Placement Program for Statistics, the following units will be covered this school year:
Unit 1: Producing & Organizing (Univariate) Data
Unit 2: Exploring Bivariate Data & Regression
Unit 3: Counting Techniques & Basic Probability
Unit 4: Density Curves, Normal Distributions, & Random Variables
Unit 5: Statistical Distributions
Unit 6: Significance Tests & Confidence Intervals
Unit 7: Inferences for One & Two-Sample Distributions
Unit 8: Inference for Tables & Regression
