Student designs a spinner or urn to represent the relative magnitude and likelihood of a particular source of measurement error.
Student simulates the likelihood of the height of a Fast Plant given the heights of two parent plants.
Student simulates variability in altitudes of a rocket by modeling median + angle measure error.
Student designs a chain of spinners to represent the chance that a basketball player who usually hits about 65% of her free throws will make 3 free throws all together.
