The z-test and t-test, IB HL Applications and Interpretations
In this fun activity, students are introduced to the z-test and t-test. They will spend 10 minutes taking a quick IQ test to generate data (which is included with answers), which will then be used to explore the question 'is the IQ of our class higher than that of the general population'. Unbiased estimators are also introduced. Full teacher version with answers included, although the answers will be different depending on the outcome of the student quizzes. Geared towards Higher Level IB Applic

Univariate Data overview for IB Applications and Interpretations
Univariate data is usually already somewhat familiar to students in both SL and HL IB Applications and Interpretations. In this overview, students will review what they know, as well as have an opportunity to learn some simple skills that may be new to them. Everything is covered except for cumulative frequency: mean, median, mode, range, quartiles, IQR, grouped frequency tables, variance, standard deviation, box and whiskers plot, pie chart, bar chart, outliers. Students use some data gathered

Least Squares Regression Using Linear Functions
In this worksheet, students are led through using least squares regression to find a line of best fit. Students begin by graphing a line by eye, learn how to use least squares regression, and finally compare their initial line to the calculator output of a regression calculation. Full answers are provided. Especially suitable for IB Applications and Interpretations, both Standard Level and Higher Level.

Teaching style
I strive for a fun and engaging set of mathematical activities that allow students to be given rigorous examples of how to reason, and are led step by step to reason in these ways themselves. Many project and discovery based activities assume students have these skills already, which in my opinion is a mistake - these are high end skills that must be learned through use. I use no AI whatsoever to create my lessons and projects as I believe it generates less high quality products than what I can produce myself.
