Assessment & Other Information
Assessment
One of the ways this course focuses on concepts is through statistics theater and essay questions... with these performances and essays, students must learn how to understand and articulate reasons and concepts rather than plugging in numbers into formulas. Students are also asked to engaged in meta-cognitive reflections on their learning (e.g., Do I understand the purpose of measuring distance with variability? Do I know what types of situations should be analyzed using correlation?)
