- Zusatztext
- The Practice of Statistics is the most trusted program for AP Statistics because it provides teachers and students with everything they need to be successful in the statistics course and on the AP Exam. With the expert authorship of high school AP Statistics veterans, Daren Starnes and Josh Tabor and their supporting team of AP teacher/leaders, The Practice of Statistics, Sixth edition (TPS6) has been crafted to follow the topical outline of the AP Statistics course with careful attention paid to the style, nomenclature, and language used on the AP Statistics exam. It combines a data analysis approach with the power of technology, innovative pedagogy, and an extensive support program built entirely for the sixth edition. New resources, including a robust online homework program and an extensively revised TestBank, give teachers and students everything they need to realize success on the exam and in the course.
