Look online and find an article published within the past 4 weeks that includes a reference to probabilities, means, or standard deviations. These articles might be discussing weather events, investing outcomes, or sports performance, among many other possible topics.

Your first post should include a summary of the article and what numbers you are highlighting from that article. Also include a link to the actual article. In your replies to other students, describe specific decisions that the statistic might influence and whether a different statistic might be more appropriate.
