MaffsGuru doesn't record just any maths videos. They’re clear, engaging, and designed to help you actually understand — not just memorise and hope for the best..
I would be really grateful if you can support the work I do by subscribing to my YouTube Channel. It really just tells me that people are watching and appreciating the content.
If your lesson notes are not downloading this may be due to your school blocking access to my notes server. If you try connecting at home, or using a different computer which is not controlled by your school, you will be able to download the notes.

Standard deviation (10A)
About Lesson
This video looks at how and why we find the standard deviation of a set of numbers. We know that the IQR and Range are taken as measures of centre around the median. The standard deviation is a measure of centre around the mean. A number of worked examples are covered using both scientific calculators and CAS. It fully explains the formula and how we can use it to find the standard deviation. There is also a mention of the dreaded exams which happen at the end of school and how the standard deviation is used! This video is one of my favourites.
