Mean Average from Discrete Data

 

Students learn how to calculate the mean average of discrete data.

As learning progresses, students move from a visual understanding of the mean average to using numerical techniques for larger data sets.

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to calculate the mean average of listed discrete data.
  • Most students should be able to compare discrete data sets using the mean average.
  • Some students should be able to complete data sets when given the mean average
