Prerequisites: Must be an 11th or 12th grade student, C- or better in Integrated Math 2
Centering around Statistics and Probability, AIES will investigate reasons to the big question: Why do students of color and girls consistently do worse in mathematics than white males, including those who come from affluent families? What are the implications of these issues in adult life? Students will hone in on the issues of mathematical knowledge attainment in relation to disadvantaged students and the effects that occur in adult life that stem from being part of a minority in the United States. Students will use statistical concepts to determine whether data they find is statistically significant to make conclusions that are worthy of publication.
