quartiles, deciles or percentiles.
The
learner will be able to investigate and explore the spread of data, the center
of the data, and the range of values by constructing a box plot.

learner will be able to use and apply the normal distribution in context of
real situations.

learner will be able to use the normal distribution as an approximation of
the binomial distribution.
The
learner will be able to use the Central Limit Theorem to evaluate the
sample means of a population.
