I have been doing some searching on the terms we were discussing in class today. I thought the definitions were not cleared up for everyone but this is what I tried to display on the board. I found the mathematical definitions on dictionary.com:
accuracy
Mathematics. the degree of correctness of a quantity, expression, etc.Compare precision (def. 5).
precision
Mathematics. the degree to which the correctness of a quantity is expressed.Compare accuracy (def. 3).
I also thought it was interesting that they have comparison links to each other. I hope this helps!
