Abstract

Appropriate teacher’s intervention and well-organized instruction can help students develop a better understanding of the target math concepts in data and probability area so that it would be easier for secondary students to figure out some difficulties or misconception in the problem- solving process. Utilizing technology like “Tinker Plots” would be beneficial for secondary students to get more interest in the math concepts in data and probability. Secondary students are supposed to know why they need those math concepts for college and job readiness and how the students make a connection between those math concepts and real-world problems.
