It would be exciting to write detailed lesson plans for the concepts of Statistics and Probability with in-depth student engagement in various Probability concepts using Python.

Here are the performance tasks I have in mind, based on the exploration and discovery of the concepts' mastery using Python, ChatGPT, and Google Collab.


Concepts: Sampling Distribution Mean, Variance, Standard Deviation and the FPC (Finite Population Correction) Factor


Sample Python Code



Learning Objectives:

1. Deepen Understanding Through Coding


- Students will enhance their understanding of Sampling Distribution, Variance, and Standard Deviation by writing and modifying Python code to compute and verify manual calculations.


2. Develop Data Analysis Skills


- Students will analyze and interpret the impact of the Finite Population Correction (FPC) on Population and Sampling Distribution graphs, strengthening their data interpretation abilities.


3. Apply Theory to Real-World Problems


- Students will create and solve probability problems involving Sampling Distribution and FPC, applying statistical concepts to real-life scenarios.


Performance Tasks:


Section I. On Sampling Distribution Mean, Variance, and Standard Deviation


A video lesson will explain or interpret, in their own words, the Python code template provided, involving probability concepts such as Sampling Distribution Variance and Standard Deviation.


I will have the students create their own probability problem involving Sampling Distribution Variance and Standard Deviation. The students will perform the manual computations for Sampling Distribution Mean, Variance, and Standard Deviation by tabulating the results. They will also compute these inferential statistics using the formula. Finally, I will have the students modify the Python code script/template to check their manual computations.


This approach will allow students to tangibly embrace the probability concepts in a 21st-century way, involving Python programming and ChatGPT-based machine learning.


Section II. FPC (Finite Population Correction) Factor


Python/Google Collab graphs will be presented, comparing the Population Distribution Graph and Sampling Distribution Graphs, considering the following conditions:


1. FPC = 1

2. FPC close to 1 and greater than 0.5

3. FPC far from 1 and less than 0.5


Students will write their observations on how the FPC influences the following:

a) The difference between the Population Distribution Graph and the Sampling Distribution Graph

b) The spreading out of the bell curves (wider or narrower)

c) The reliability of the Sampling Distribution Graph


Why does increasing the sample size matter? What is the implication of having a large sample size in actual field studies and research?
