MATH 210 - Introductory Statistics

The course begins by exploring statistical inference for one and two variables using a randomization approach, while reviewing basic descriptive statistical techniques. The course then explores the relationship between randomization methods and traditional inference techniques, estimation using confidence intervals and statistical power and its impact on sample design decisions. Throughout the course there is an emphasis on active-learning using group activities and projects, as well as reading and critiquing research from mainstream and peer-reviewed media sources. Activities, projects and hands-on learning activities are conducted using a variety of approaches but make heavy use of the computer and statistical software. Cannot receive credit for both MATH 210 and MATH 311.
