Discussion Questions
Before the Game
How can we predict the outcomes of future events with statistics and probability? Can you explain the difference between representative, bias and random samples? Which type of sampling is best used to make a generalization about a population? What type of data can be analyzed statistically?
After the Game
In the surveys that you distributed in the game, what did it mean to have bias? Were there times that bias was good/bad? As you evaluated the accuracy of your data, was it usually better to have a larger or smaller sample size of surveyed people? How did sampling and using sample generalization help you to make decisions as a ruler?
