In this module students analyze real-world data relating to apple production and consumption. Looking at global and US data, students look at measures of central tendency by analyzing a box-and-whisker plot and later normal distribution graphs.

Math topics covered include:

• Median
• Mean
• Box-and-whisker plot
• Normal distribution
• Sample mean and sample standard deviation

This module includes three videos that provide examples, definitions, and real-world context. Supplement this module with hands-on activities where students calculate their own data from random samples. 

In this video tutorial students learn how to calculate the mean when all of the data items are positive numbers. Includes three real-world examples.
