This resource contains a student activity handout, a facilitation guide, example solutions, and class notes. Students work together to discover one-to-one correspondences between various infinite sets of numbers and the set of natural numbers. At the end of this activity the compiled results of their group work form a list of infinite sets that all have the same cardinality as the set of natural numbers. Instructors may take this lesson further by discussion countably infinite versus uncountably infinite sets. This activity aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 1: Apply the language and notation of sets.

This resource contains class notes, an activity handout, and a facilitation guide. Students play the game “Let’s Make a Deal” to explore the underlying probability that guides the optimal strategy for contestants. This activity aligns with MATH 1342 Learning Outcome 3: Compute and interpret empirical and theoretical probabilities using the rules of probabilities and combinatorics.

This resource contains a facilitation guide, class notes, and an activity handout. Students play the game “Let’s Make a Deal” to explore the underlying probability that guides the optimal strategy for contestants. This activity aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 4: Demonstrate fundamental probability/counting techniques and apply those techniques to solve problems.

This resource contains a slide deck and a facilitation guide. Students are guided to consider how mathematics can help us understand the phenomenon of a pandemic and inform our responses. Students work in groups using the NCTM’s browser pandemic app to manipulate four factors that influence the spread of a virus to see the how changing these variables creates different outcomes. They learn and explore how a log curve is used in this model. This activity aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 6: Demonstrate the ability to choose and analyze mathematical models to solve problems from real-world settings, including, but not limited to, personal finance, health literacy, and civic engagement

This resource contains a news article about using algorithms to stop gerrymandering and a lesson plan to pair with the article.Students make predictions, calculator confidence intervals, and discover the Law of Large Numbers via simulation. This lesson can be closed with a discussion of the Central Limit Theorem. This activity aligns with MATH 1342 Learning Outcome 5: Examine, analyze, and compare various sampling distributions for both discrete and continuous random variables and Learning Outcome 6: Describe and compute confidence intervals.

This resource contains a news article and a facilitation guide. Students play the game “Let’s Make a Deal” to explore the underlying probability that guides the optimal strategy for contestants. This activity aligns with MATH 1342 Learning Outcome 4: Explain the role of probability in statistics.

This resource contains a news article, probability table, statistical study skill, and facilitation guide. Students investigate the role of statistics and mathematical modeling in football analysis. This activity aligns with MATH 1342 Learning Outcome 1: Explain the use of data collection and statistics as tools to reach reasonable conclusions.

From the site: "In the Oregon State Guide to Grammar, our professors define grammar terms, explain grammatical conventions, identify parts of speech and constructions, and help students toward a better awareness of their own linguistic intuition. The video series is designed to be a free, online, creative commons (CC BY) resource for high school and college English teachers and students, offering them tools to engage meaningfully with challenging grammatical issues."

Course for beginning Instructional Designers. Explains ADDIE design method as well as skill sets for Instructional Designers.

This resource contains a facilitation guide. Students practice data analysis and review the point-slope form of a line. This activity primarily aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 5: Interpret and analyze various representations of data.

Introduction to seismic theory, measurements and processing of seismic data to final focussed image for geological and/or physical interpretation.This course deals with the most important aspects of reflection seismics. Theory of seismic waves, aspects of data acquisition (seismic sources, receivers and recorders), and of data processing (CMP processing, velocity analysis, stacking, migration) will be dealt with. The course will be supplemented by a practical of 6 afternoons where the students will see the most important data-processing steps via exercises (in Matlab).

This is a by-no-means comprehensive list of Maps, Documents, Photos/Artwork, Music, Government Agencies, Local (Houston, TX Area) Museums and Foundations, etc. suitable for the social sciences.

Locate and use numeric, statistical, geospatial, and qualitative data sets, find data management templates, find data repositories to house your own data and find tools for data visualization.

The Open Resource site is intended to facilitate discovery and use of open resources starting with Open Educational Resources (OER). The Open Resource site will continue to develop and change depending on the needs of the community, and are outlined in the future developments section. Essentially it is a place to search for all the places to search for OER.

From the site: "In the Oregon State Guide to English Literary Terms, our professors define common literary devices and offer short lessons on how to use them in essays and other forms of literary criticism. The series is designed to be a free, online, creative commons (CC BY) resource for high school and college English teachers and students, offering them tools to engage meaningfully with challenging literary texts.

To support dual language instruction, we have added Spanish as well as English subtitles to many of our videos. If you would like to read the English or Spanish transcripts of our videos, please click on their titles and you will be directed to pages dedicated to each term."

Poverty, disease, hunger, climate change, war, existential risks, and inequality: The world faces many great and terrifying problems. It is these large problems that our work at Our World in Data focuses on.

Thanks to the work of thousands of researchers around the world who dedicate their lives to it, we often have a good understanding of how it is possible to make progress against the large problems we are facing. The world has the resources to do much better and reduce the suffering in the world.

We believe that a key reason why we fail to achieve the progress we are capable of is that we do not make enough use of this existing research and data: the important knowledge is often stored in inaccessible databases, locked away behind paywalls and buried under jargon in academic papers.

The goal of our work is to make the knowledge on the big problems accessible and understandable. As we say on our homepage, Our World in Data is about Research and data to make progress against the world’s largest problems.

This resource contains a news article, a facilitation guide, and two activity handouts. Students flip coins, gather and analize data, and gain an appreciation for the challenge of generating truly random data. Then the students are guided through forming a statistical hypothesis, gathering and analyzing evidence, and interpreting their analysis using p-values. The lesson ends with a discussion of Benford’s Law. This activity aligns with MATH 1342 Learning Outcome 8: Perform hypothesis testing using statistical methods.
