Statistical Laboratory The objective of the laboratory is to help students develop the skills necessary to analyze real data and hence learn the underlying statistical concepts. This laboratory serves a similar role as a chemistry or physics laboratory does; it provides an opportunity for you to interactively uncover the information in a data set in the context of answering questions about the situation that the data relates to. The idea is to train yourself in the process of analyzing real data, which is a skill that you will need here at UW and in your post-UW years. Preparation for the First Laboratory (Thursday, Jan 11 10:30am)The first laboratory will be
an introduction to ThomsonNOW and
Cyberstats (Under “Course Materials” in ThomsonNOW). You will
need to subscribe to it before the session. Unless announced on the
mailing list, all laboratories will be Thursday, 10:30am-11:20am. The
laboratory exercises are within ThomsonNOW
and are available from your home page when you log in. |
