E-Portfolio Strand Maths Probability Term 2 2018

Learning Outcomes
Level 2
Probability
  • Investigate simple situations that involve elements of chance, recognising equal and different likelihoods and acknowledging uncertainty.
Level 3
Probability
  • Investigate simple situations that involve elements of chance by comparing experimental results with expectations from models of all the outcomes, acknowledging that samples vary.
Level 4
Probability
  • Investigate situations that involve elements of chance by comparing experimental distributions with expectations from models of the possible outcomes.
  • Use simple fractions and percentages to describe probabilities.
1) Describe in your own words what these words mean.

Probability - It can happen but it also could not happen.

Impossible - It will not happen no matter what.
Unlikely - It probably won't happen but there is a slim chance it could.
Even chance -There is the same amount of chance for it not happening as it is for it happening.
Likely - It probably will happen but there is a slim chance it could. 
Certain - It will happen no matter what.

  1. It was good to see you using the language of maths to describe statistical outcomes. You are able to confidently describe different likelihoods with a clear understanding.
