Stats, AR, Inq Into Eff Pract

Catalog description

This course provides an introduction to statistics and begins to incorporate research in mathematics education. Topics include graphical and numerical organization and presentation of data, summary statistics for quantitative data, measures of relationship between variables, and inference from sample data to populations. This course forms the foundation for later work in statistics and school-based research, and is followed by the completion of a small-scale classroom inquiry. The inquiry allows participants to bring together the research they read with the statistics they learn to formulate the study, develop an intervention, and analyze the resulting data. Prerequisites: EDEL550 and EDEL551 and EDEL553 and EDEL554 Restrictions: Must be enrolled in one of the following Levels: Graduate College of Health and Human Sciences School of Education
