TITLE
(do not include author names in document, as the
lesson should be BLINDED for review)
Overview of Lesson
Use 100 words or lesson to describe the essence of the lesson plan, including core concepts and
modes of engagement or use of tools.
GAISE Components
This investigation follows the four components of statistical problem solving put forth in the
Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) Report. The four
components are: formulate a question, design and implement a plan to collect data, analyze the
data, and interpret results in the context of the original question.
This is a GAISE Level A (B, C, A/B, B/C) activity.

Title
Teacher’s Lesson Plan
Describe the Context and Formulate a Question
Put details here. Note, If the lesson begins with students getting access to pre-collected data and
posing their own question to investigate, in this section describe the context and list general
questions a teacher would pose to students. Then in the next section, have them examine the data
and pose the investigative question.

Suggested Assessment (optional)
Provide several formative assessment items that could be used to gauge student understanding
Possible Differentiation
Describe ways this lesson could be adapted for learners at a different GAISE level (lower or
higher)
References
If activity is adapted from a source, use something like the following
Adapted from an activity created by Paul J. Fields, Ph.D. for the American Statistical
Association Meeting Within a Meeting Program for Middle School Teachers (2008).
If several sources were used to inform ideas for the lesson, list each using APA citation
standards. If data, software, or images are used, these also need to be referenced.

Further Reading About the Topic
List 1-3 articles that teachers could refer to learn more about the content, teaching approach, or
other lesson ideas for the topic. These could be from NCTM publications, NCTM websites
(Interactives), ASA websites or publications (e.g., Journal of Statistics Education, CHANCE), or
other sources. At least one of these should be a source that can be accessed easily online.
Associate Editors should be able to help authors develop this list if needed.
