Task goals
- Identify the three core assumptions of theoretical probability: fair devices, equally likely outcomes, and random processes.
- Explain why each assumption matters and what happens when an assumption is violated.
- Distinguish between what is possible and what is likely in a probability context.
- Use sample size and experimental data to judge whether evidence of bias is convincing.
- Evaluate probability claims in real-world contexts and identify hidden or unstated assumptions.
- Critique faulty probability reasoning and explain where the logic breaks down.
