New Zealand Crash Statistics Internal Assessment (NZQA)

An internal assessment resource provided by NZQA to support internal assessment of the Achievement Standard 91582 (3.10).

This activity is motivated by a recent successful advertising campaign.  It requires students to carry out an investigation that uses statistical methods to make a formal inference about New Zealand crash statistics.

Resources:

• Crash Statistics 3.10B exemplar
• Crash Statistics 3.10B data
• Expected responses from students and grade boundaries

See also 2012 Teacher’s Day “Sample to population inference” which has a powerpoint presentation and slightly modified version of this exemplar.

This activity can be adapted to use another existing data set.
