Statistics is the mathematics of the collection, organization, and interpretation of numerical data, especially the analysis of population characteristics by inference from sampling.In this class, students will examine the basic elements of probability, the binomial and normal distributions, measures of center and spread, and linear correlation.Students will measure central tendencies of data, explore data distributions, and will examine bivariate data and frequency tables.Students will develop strategies for collecting data. Students will learn how to test hypotheses and how to make statistical inferences from data.Students will test results for significance at various levels of confidence.The chi-square, normal, and t distributions will be studied. Students will learn how to use technology as well as statistical tables to do their analyses.It is the goal of the course to teach students to improve their critical thinking and to learn to make judgments based on sound statistical theory. A graphing calculator (such as the TI-83/84) is required. This class is reserved for juniors and seniors.
