Learning Outcomes Students will be able to: • Develop an understanding to how probability relates to number • Key competencies...
What Building confidence with probability through developing understanding Why Probability concepts can be misunderstood How Through the use of language activities, examples and contexts
What is probability? What is the purpose of probability? When or how do you use Probability? What is most important in teaching/learning probability?
Two ways of thinking: Deterministic thinking proceeds from a position of certainty and precision. Stochastic thinking proceeds from a position of uncertainty and variation.
The New Zealand Curriculum 2007. Where does probability vocabulary fit into the curriculum?
Development of associated language: Will/Might/Won’t happen/Certain/Possible/Impossible etc. Can be expressed as a fraction Probability = Work out Can be placed on a number line Theoretical Work out all possible ways to get the ‘desired” outcomes Work out all possible outcomes Impossible (0) (0%) Certain (1) (100%)
Birth month • My best friend and I have our birthdays in the same month. • In my family of five, none of us have our birthdays in the same month.
Problem • To explore the different combinations of birth months in groups of five people, to see how likely it is that two or more people have the same birth month.

Volunteers Please… A quizmaster A lovely assistant Some contestants http://www.nzmaths.co.nz/numeracy/2006numPDFs/NumBk9.pdf
The quizmaster places a chocolate bar under one of the three cups while the contestant is not watching. • The contestant points at a cup that the chocolate bar might be under • The quizmaster turns over one of the cups that they know doesn’t cover the chocolate bar • The contestant decides whether to change their choice • The quizmaster shows the cup which is hiding the chocolate bar
The Monty Hall problem is a puzzle based on the American game show Let's Make a Deal. Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice? http://www.letsmakeadeal.com/problem.htm http://www.dcity.org/braingames/3doors/index.htm
