Section Description

This will be a primarily flipped class, where you will be responsible for reading the textbook and class materials before working on the material in class. This pre-class work will be essential to your class work each day. We will use R statistical software. The course will not include teaching R. A basic knowledge of R is expected. Key topics are: *Straight-Line Regression Analysis *The Correlation Coefficient and Regression Analysis *The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) Table *Multiple Regression Analysis: General Considerations *Testing Hypothesis in Multiple Regression *Correlations: Multiple, Partial, and Multiple Partial *Confounding and Interaction *Regression Diagnostics *One-Way ANOVA *Two-Way ANOVA

Section Expectation

Students should expect three or more hours of work outside of class for every hour of class time. Reading the textbook and class notes before each class is essential. Homework assignments will be listed on the Brightspace class webpage. Late assignments will not be accepted. The course will consist of a mixture of short lectures, problem solving, in-class group work, discussion, and projects to highlight particular topics. It would be impossible, however, for these to encompass all of the material for the course. There will be material in the text for which you will be responsible that we will not cover in detail during class. You must read the material in the text before we discuss it in class.

Evaluation

Final grades will be determined by exams, R labs, quizzes, homework, and participation in class discussions.
