    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_flipping

    Coin flipping, coin tossing, or heads or tails is the practice of throwing a coin in the air and checking which side is showing when it lands, in order to randomly choose between two alternatives.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_manipulatives_for...

    Virtual manipulatives for mathematics are digital representations of physical mathematics manipulatives used in classrooms. [1] The goal of this technology is to allow learners to investigate, explore and derive mathematical concepts using concrete models.

  4. Sequential probability ratio test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_probability...

    For instance, suppose the cutscore is set at 70% for a test. We could select p 1 = 0.65 and p 2 = 0.75. The test then evaluates the likelihood that an examinee's true score on that metric is equal to one of those two points. If the examinee is determined to be at 75%, they pass, and they fail if they are determined to be at 65%.

  5. Calibrated probability assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibrated_probability...

    Calibrated probability assessments are subjective probabilities assigned by individuals who have been trained to assess probabilities in a way that historically represents their uncertainty. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] For example, when a person has calibrated a situation and says they are "80% confident" in each of 100 predictions they made, they will get ...

  6. Statistical hypothesis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_hypothesis_test

    This ensures that the hypothesis test maintains its specified false positive rate (provided that statistical assumptions are met). [35] The p-value is the probability that a test statistic which is at least as extreme as the one obtained would occur under the null hypothesis. At a significance level of 0.05, a fair coin would be expected to ...

  9. Fisher's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher's_method

    Under Fisher's method, two small p-values P 1 and P 2 combine to form a smaller p-value.The darkest boundary defines the region where the meta-analysis p-value is below 0.05.. For example, if both p-values are around 0.10, or if one is around 0.04 and one is around 0.25, the meta-analysis p-value is around 0
