Athletics Problem
Length: 1-3 Hours
Discipline: Statistics
Level: Introductory (middle grade, gifted students)
Author: Chamberlin, Scott
The Athletics Problem is one that asks students to engage in computing a correlation while simultaneously looking at spread of data (standard deviation). Specifically, students are asked to look at demographic data, height, and weight to determine if any relationship exists between the event athletes do and their demographic data.
