Hi! thanks so much for your video. I'm currently taking SL Math AA and was wondering what processes I expand on, so far I have; Mean and Standard deviation, Regression analysis, Hypothesis testing, as well as expanding on residuals/outliers. I wanted to know how exactly I could use these methods within my IA. My IA question is how injured players affect the win percentage of their teams in terms of the NBA. Thanks so much!
Sounds like a great list of statistical topics to apply. But be careful to not just throw a bunch of calculations at your IA if it doesn't make sense to do so. That is a huge part of the IA - what math are you using? Why are you using it? Does it make sense to use these mathematical methods/formulas? And what do you do/think based on the results? That is what the IA is about - using mathematics to make informed decisions/conclusions. So ask yourself, do all those different analytical methods/topics make sense to apply to your IA? And what is your takeaways after doing them? I know I didn't answer your question directly, but I think you have a bit more thinking about what you are doing and how you are going about it before you jump into the mathematics.
Good morning sir, I do maths aa sl and really want to maximize my grades through this exploration. I am doing an IA in statistics so is there any tip of advice I could get to maximize my grade and meet the analysis requirements
Other than what is outlined in this video? Gather your own data. Make sure that it is meaningful and purposeful. Analyze the data and don't just assume that linear is the best (or only) option - check the residuals. Discuss why the model/data is relevant and be open to stating what didn't go well (and not "I need more data"). And if you can, connect to other topics (modeling, running a statistical test, etc). The more you can do beyond gathering data and creating a scatter plot, the better. The gathering and graphing data is expected. You need to go beyond what is expected because you have been gathering data and graphing since middle school. It's not SL quality work. I hope that helps.
Hello! I am taking Analysis HL and trying to do Mathematics IA in statistics. Would this be a good idea? Cuz I am a bit nervous if it does not meet the analysis HL requirements perhaps...
Hello. Two things...first, I haven't taught HL yet, but my opinion is that Statistics isn't one of the stronger IA content areas for HL Analysis. You would be better suited going with something in Calculus, Trigonometry, Vectors, etc. That said, **IF** you have a fantastic idea, then there are exceptions to every rule. But you will have to go deep with your analysis, thinking and application. My second point that I would make is don't go into the IA with the thought "I want to do content area". I would suggest finding something you are really interested in, outside of mathematics, and apply what you have been learning to that interest. I have a video that could help you brainstorm that thinking here: th-cam.com/video/Fr9r6uRlbDg/w-d-xo.html You'll tend to build up your personal engagement (Criterion C) if you approach the IA from this angle. I hope that was helpful. Good luck!
you actually saved by grade thank you brother
You're welcome! Good luck!
I love this man
You're very kind. I'm glad I was able to help you.
Hi just wanted to know if I should continue my ia if my relationship is a very weak positive correlation?
