PASS Objectives
What is a PASS Objective
Example: 8th grade Objective
Central Tendency: Find the measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode, and range) of a set of data and understand why a specific measure provides the most useful information in a given context.
PASS: Central Tendency
Find the mean of the following numbers:2.4, 5.3, 6.2, 7, 1.5,
5.3
A) 5.3 C)4.61B) 27.7 D) 7
What Do Common Core State Standards Look Like?
Example: Central Tendency 6th Grade.
Develop understanding of statistical variability. Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with
a single number.
Example: Our school has to select a girl for the long jump at the regional championship. Three girls are in contention. We have a school jump-
off. Their results, in meters, are given in the accompanying table.
Amy Miki Aisha3.25 3.55 3.67
3.95 3.88 3.78
4.28 3.61 3.92
2.95 3.97 3.62
3.66 3.75 3.85
3.81 3.59 3.73
Table 3: Data from the jump-off: distances are given in meters.
John says, “Aisha has the longest average. She should go to the championship.” Do you think John is right?
Explain your reasoning.
