Hello,
I teach 10-11 grader HS Chemistry. One of the earlier topics in the course is understanding the difference between Accuracy and Precision of data.
General the best and recognized means of determining whether a set of data is precise is via it's standard deviation. I would guess that most of my students have not been exposed to Standard Dev. yet, so the million dollar question is, what methodologies do other teachers employ and teach to determine whether or not a data is precision, beside looking at it?
Thanks.
