Texas Instruments: Probability as Relative Frequency
In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event...

Shodor Interactivate: The Chaos Game
Play the Chaos Game by experimenting with probabilities. Learn about an apparently random process with a not-so-random, geometric fractal result.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Numb3 Rs: Sharpshooter
Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson forces students to consider the fallacy of computing probabilities AFTER a series of events have occurred. Known as Texas sharpshooting, student will find that finding the...
