Calendar and Notes
General Education Statistics Section 7 MW 1pm - Fall 2024
Below is a daily schedule of notes/assignments for our class. I will post shell notes before each lecture, and in class we will go through them, solve questions, and fill them in. I will post the filled in notes after the lecture.
Under each day you will find all the materials needed: shell notes, filled in notes, any activities we do in class and links to textbook reading and assignments.
The dates for the exams and groups quizzes are set. You can go ahead and mark them on your calendar. Other assignments dates for Excel homework and in class activities will be clearly communicated in class and via Canvas/Navigator 360.
Textbook by Chapter available under each day. Click on the chapter name.
Disclaimer: This calendar represents my current plans and objectives. As we go through the semester, those plans may need to change to enhance the class learning opportunity. Such changes, communicated clearly, are not unusual and should be expected.
