This college-level course in introductory statistics includes (1) exploring data: observing patterns and departures from patterns; (2) planning a study: deciding what or how to measure; (3) anticipating patterns in advance: introducing probability and simulation; (4) statistical inference: confirming models. There are several special problems/investigations culminating in a written report. Students should own or have access to a graphing calculator and a computer.
