Chapters 1-9 are covered including contingency tables, marginal and conditional graphs, boxplots, modified boxplots, Normal distributions, and linear regressions.
Grading:
I’m really boring!!!! Even though I’m a math teacher, it’s a really simple equation to calculate your son/daughter’s grade.
This is now a full year course. The grade will now be 45% of the first semester, 45% of the second semester, and the exam will count for 10% of the grade. The exam is on Statistics only!!! If a Senior has an A- or better by June, he/she will be exempt from the final.
How does one get these points, you may ask???? I know you’re on the edge of your seat!!!!
1. Quizzes Homework a). Walk around room to check b). Homework quiz c). Sometimes collect It’s about 10% - 15% of grade 3. Computer Labs 4. Calculator Labs 5. Projects 6. Extra Credit (Review Games,Problems Bonus Opportunities)
