VC2M7P02
conduct repeated chance experiments and run simulations with a large number of trials using digital tools; compare predicted with observed results, explaining the differences and the effect of sample size on the outcomes
Elaborations
-
developing an understanding of the law of large numbers through using experiments and simulations to conduct large numbers of trials for seemingly random events and discussing findings
-
conducting simulations using online simulation tools and comparing the combined results of a large number of trials to predicted results
-
exploring and observing Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander children’s instructive games – for example, Koara from the Jawi and Bardi Peoples of Sunday Island in Western Australia – to investigate probability, predicting outcomes for an event and comparing with increasingly larger numbers of trials, and comparing observed and expected results
