Teaching Outlines
Concept #1 Introduction to Probability
Learning objectives
- Understand that events occur with different frequencies
- Different events have different likelihoods (likely, unlikely, equally likely, not equally likely)
- Understand the idea of sample space and universe of events
Notes for teachers
- To understand likelihood of events happening
- The objective here is not numerical computation but to understand events, likelihoods and vocabulary of description. The activity can be done in groups/ pairs. Not a whole class activity.
- Compare the results across groups.
- To develop an understanding of what chance means?
Activities
- Activity No #1 probability_introduction_activity1
- Activity No #2 probability_introduction_activity2
Concept #2 Different types of events
Learning objectives
- Understand elementary and compound events and construction of such events
- Independent events
