AP Statistics Syllabus – Mr. Farmer
Texts
David E. Bock, Paul F. Velleman, and Richard D. De Veaux. Stats: Modeling the World, second
edition. Pearson Addison-Wesley,2010.
Technology
All students have a TI-84+ graphing calculator for use in class, at home, and on the AP exam.
Microsoft Excel will be used for demonstrations in class and labs.
Students will have occasional assignments that must be completed using Microsoft Excel.
Various applets on the Internet.
Course Design
The purpose of the AP course in statistics is to introduce students to the major concepts and tools for
collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Students will develop a conceptual
understanding of how to derive meaning from data, and will utilize the tools of statistics for collecting,
analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Participation in class discussions is vitally important,
and correct terminology and portrayal of concepts is stressed. Homework, quizzes, tests, and exams all
require written expression of methods, results, and interpretations using correct statistical terminology
and phrasing. The 4C's of technical writing are stressed. Written responses need to be clear, concise,
correct, and in-context.
Students are exposed to four broad conceptual themes:
1. Exploring Data: Describing patterns and departures from patterns
2. Sampling and Experimentation: Planning and conducting a study
3. Anticipating Patterns: Exploring random phenomena using probability and simulation
4. Statistical Inference: Estimating population parameters and testing hypotheses
Supplies
Each student is encouraged to bring the following items to class each day:
1. Three ring binder for class syllabus, schedule, notes, labs, and assignments
2. Binder pocket to keep flash cards
3. Pencil
4. Highlighter
Each student is asked to bring the five items listed below to class by the end of the first week of
class. These items will be used during the year by the class.

Grading
Minor Grades (30% of overall grade):
Daily Assignments:
Each assignment will be graded in class on the next school day
Chapter Vocabulary:
Assigned at the beginning of each chapter
Chapter Quizzes:
Each Free Response problem part graded as E (Essentially Correct), P (Partially Correct), or I
(Incorrect)
Each problem is then scored:
Score 4 – All E’s
Score 2 – All E’s except one I
Score 3 – Mostly E’s and the rest P’s Score 1 – Some E’s or P’s and rest I’s
Score 2.5 – Same number of E’s & P’s with no I’s
Score 2 – Mostly P’s and the rest E’s Score 0 – No E’s or P’s
Final recorded grades will be based on the following scale using the mean score of all
problems:
- Score 4 – Recorded as 100%
– Score 1.5 – 2.4 – Recorded as 70%
- Score 3.5 – 3.9 – Recorded as 95% – Score 0.5 – 1.4 – Recorded as 50%
- Score 2.5 – 3.4 – Recorded as 90% – Score 0 – 0.4 – Recorded as 0%
Chapter Labs:
Investigations into the main ideas of the chapter
If you are absent for any reason, you are responsible for making up all parts of the lab missed.
Weekly Study Record:
You are expected to spend an average of 2 – 3 hours of study time each week.
You weekly study time must be submitted each week.
Major Grades (70% of overall grade):
Multiple Choice (MC) Unit Exams
2
20 Multiple Choice Questions
Grade based on percentage correct
A student may retake these exams, however the re-take exam will not be the same exam.
o For the first re-take, the maximum score is still 100 points.
Must be taken within two weeks of the original exam date *
o For the second re-take, the maximum score is 80 points.
Must be taken within three weeks of the original exam date *
AP Statistics Syllabus – Mr. Farmer
Major Grades (cont.):
Free Response (FR) Unit Exams
4 or 5 multi-part problems
Each problem part graded as E (Essentially Correct), P (Partially Correct), or I (Incorrect)
Each problem is then scored:
Score 4 – All E’s
Score 2 – All E’s except one I
Score 3 – Mostly E’s and the rest P’s Score 1 – Some E’s or P’s and rest I’s
Score 2.5 – Same number of E’s & P’s with no I’s
Score 2 – Mostly P’s and the rest E’s Score 0 – No E’s or P’s
Final recorded grades will be based on the following scale using the mean score of all problems:
- Score 4 – Recorded as 100%
– Score 1.5 – 2.4 – Recorded as 70%
- Score 3.5 – 3.9 – Recorded as 95% – Score 0.5 – 1.4 – Recorded as 50%
- Score 2.5 – 3.4 – Recorded as 90% – Score 0 – 0.4 – Recorded as 0%
A student may retake these exams, however the re-take exam will not be the same exam.
- For the first re-take, the maximum score is still 100 points.
- For the second re-take, the maximum score is 80 points.
Fall Final (One-seventh of 1st Semester Grade):
There are no exemptions for this exam.
Practice Exams
Students will earn a major grade for the practice exams.
Spring Project
Students will earn both minor and major grades for their project.
Spring Final (One-seventh of 2nd Semester Grade):
Will be a shortened version of the practice exam used during the semester
Only students taking the AP Exam will be exempt from this exam.
ABSENCES
Unexcused absences on the day of a a quiz will be scored as a zero and count as the first
attempt for the quiz.
Unexcused absences on the day of a an exam will be scored as a zero and count as the first
attempt for the exam.
RETAKES
3
All quiz and exam retakes must be done during tutorials or by appointment, at the first of
the student’s lunch period.
