Inference (revised)

 

The inference unit is probably the most comprehensive one in this collection. After the very important concepts of sampling distribution and the central limit theorem are introduced, there are several packets available that deal with the various types of hypothesis testing and confidence intervals. In these packets, there are many examples of these procedures.  There are several quizzes and exams along the way. A continuation of the Newton problem that was initiated in the Experimental Design is also included. The problem will focus on inference; trying to predict the number of people in a town based on sampling.

Contents of the Inference Material

 

Cover page: For each of the sections, I have a cover page that describes the material and what it includes. I suggest that you read it for each section. Material that is new or revised I indicated in red.

 

Overview. These are generally booklets or description pages where there are no problems to solve. For instance, we have one booklet on all aspects of the calculator.  Since there are no solutions, the Overview file is located only in the student version. The contents are described in the cover pages.

Teaching. These are documents that the teacher uses for face-to-face teaching. It walks students through a process like doing regression or a hypothesis test. There are several problems that teachers will do with the students in class and homework problem, found in the exercises mimic them. The contents of the teaching packet are described in the cover pages.

Exercises.  This is the bulk of the material. It contains homework problems, quizzes, and exams, and simulations to try. In the Inference section, there are two exercise files because of the great number of concepts taught. The contents of the exercise packet are described in the cover pages.

 
YouTube Videos and Powerpoints. Several concepts are further explained with examples using YouTube videos. These are narrated. Unnarrated versions and scripts that go with them might be used by teachers who want more control of the video. These are in Powerpoint format. Powerpoints are compatible with the Windows version of Microsoft Office 2010 and later and the Mac version of Microsoft Office 2011 and later.
