About

This quiz covers sampling methods and survey design within the broader topic of statistics, specifically focusing on the foundational concepts taught in Advanced Placement Statistics. The material is appropriate for grade 12 students who are developing sophisticated understanding of statistical methodology. Students need to master the distinctions between different sampling techniques including simple random sampling, systematic sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling, convenience sampling, and voluntary response sampling. They must understand fundamental statistical vocabulary such as population versus sample, parameter versus statistic, and census versus survey. Additionally, students need to recognize sources of bias including undercoverage, nonresponse bias, voluntary response bias, and convenience sampling bias, while also identifying problematic survey design elements like leading questions and double-barreled questions. The questions require students to analyze real-world scenarios and classify the sampling method being used, demonstrating their ability to connect theoretical concepts to practical applications. Created by Katherine Sheetz, a Mathematics teacher in US who teaches grade 12. This quiz serves as an excellent review tool for AP Statistics students preparing for assessments on sampling and survey design methodology. Teachers can deploy this quiz as a formative assessment to gauge student understanding before moving to more complex statistical inference topics, or use it as targeted practice after introducing Chapter 4.1 content on sampling methods. The quiz works well as homework to reinforce classroom learning, as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge, or as review material before unit tests or AP exam preparation. The variety of question formats, from scenario-based classification problems to vocabulary matching, provides comprehensive coverage that supports mastery of essential statistical literacy skills. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards S-IC.1 and S-IC.3, which focus on understanding statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on random samples from that population.
