4credit hour(s)Prerequisite:Math Skills 2 This course discusses the fundamentals of descriptive and inferential statistics. Students will gain introductions to topics such as descriptive statistics, probability and basic probability models used in statistics, sampling and statistical inference, and techniques for the visual presentation of numerical data. These concepts will be illustrated by examples from a variety of fields.
Note(s):
In a face-to-face format, Introduction to Statistics Plus offers additional supporting materials and time in the classroom.
In an online format, Introduction to Statistics Plus offers additional supporting materials and support from the instructor. Students will need to dedicate up to twice as much time to the course content when compared to a standard online Introduction to Statistics course (MATH 1350).
In either format, the goal of Introduction to Statistics Plus is to prepare students to complete the Introduction to Statistics learning outcomes without first passing Algebraic Problem Solving II (MATH 0980), or attaining the equivalent placement score.
Although MATH 0980 content is incorporated into MATH 1350P, students will not be provided the complete MATH 0980 course.
