AP Statistics Resources
Advanced Placement Statistics acquaints students with the major concepts
and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.
The course will have a data-driven framework that will require students
to work on projects involving hands-on gathering and analysis of real world
data, making full use of the information available on the Internet. Computers
and calculators will allow students to focus deeply on the key concepts
