Statistics
Description: Fathom Dynamic
Statistics software was designed to change the way students learn data
analysis, statistics, and mathematics. Its unique computer learning environment
gives students the power to gather, explore, and analyze data, and to
understand statistics as never before. Dynamic dragging makes analysis
easy and abstract concepts meaningful.
Additionally, with Fathom, algebra drives a variety of animations, plots,
simulations, and student-constructed statistical measures, making mathematics
exciting and relevant.
Fathom includes:
More than 300 data sets (including U.S. Census microdata, sports data,
the planets, temperatures from a weather balloon ascent, heights of tall
buildings, airliners, car tires, nails, the Consumer Price Index, train
timetables, and more)
Over 100 functions (including arithmetic, trig, statistical, conditional,
random numbers, distribution densities and cumulative densities, and text)
Dozens of graph types (including
scatter plots, box plots, histograms, percentile plots, bar charts, and
ribbon charts)
- A formula editor with true mathematical formatting
- Sliders
- Simulations
- Plot functions superimposed on data
- Summary tables allowing students to decide what statistics
they want
- Parameter estimates and hypothesis tests that support statistical
inference
