Goals The main aim of the course is to enable students to learn and interpret descriptive statistics, frequency distributions and graphs, central tendency measures, variability measures, probability, probability distributions, z-score, confidence intervals and hypothesis tests, which are the basic topics in statistics.
Course Content Sample, organization and analysis of data; sampling distribution and estimation; confidence interval concept; interval estimation for difference of two population means, interval estimation for ratio of two population variances, interval estimation for binomial parameter p; hypothesis testing, correlation and regression.
Learning Outcomes - Distinguish between descriptive and inferential statistics.
- Define basic statistical concepts (data, variable, sample, etc.)
- Distinguish various variables (continuous, discrete, etc.) from each other,
- Expressing frequency distributions and graphics in various ways
- Ability to calculate central trend measures
- Understand the normal distribution and z-score relationship
- Ability to calculate probability using basic probability rules
