- A fun game about Capture-Recapture of
fish to approximate the number of fish in the pond/lake.
- Students will learn about the
hypergeometric distribution and its applications as well
as other basic statistical concepts such as estimation and
confidence intervals.
- Other applications of the hypergeometric
Distribution, for example, are:
- Estimating the number of mountain
lions in a state park
- Estimating the number of insects in
a grove
- This is just one estimation method in
statistics; there are many other interesting distributions
and analysis procedures in this field as well.

- A fun game about baseball where you predict the number of games won in a season and the lengths of the longest winning and losing streaks.
- Students will learn about the binomial distribution and its applications as well as other basic statistical concepts such as expected value, independence, Markov chains, and run tests.
- Other applications of the binomial distribution, for example, are:
- Survey on preference between two products
- Successful free throws during a game
- Other application of Markov chains, for example, are:
- Weather Prediction
- Stock Market Models

- Students will learn about independent and joint probabilities, and about their various applications.
- Other applications of the probabilities, for example, are:
- Finding marginal probabilities to determine most limiting factors
- Creating and using Venn Diagrams to better understand the relation between different factors
