Links to posts about average, standard deviation, z-scores and how to use the TI-30XIIs to create a list


Posts about average (mean)

Posts about standard deviation

Posts about z-scores

Posts about using the TI-30XIIs to create lists and get the important statistics 

Posts about frequency tables

Note: there are a lot of posts about standard deviation and z-scores that go beyond the scope of what we are doing right now. These are topics we will revisit many times throughout the semester. Another way to get information about the outliers using the average and standard deviation is to search the blog for the word "unusually".
