MATH106L - Statistics I Course Description = Recognizing that data and variability impact our daily decisions, Statistics I: An Introduction to Statistical Reasoning focuses on developing statistical literacy through an investigative process of problem-solving and decision-making. Students participate in the statistical process by formulating questions, analyzing data, and interpreting results, learning to become critical consumers of statistical information. The course introduces students to descriptive and inferential statistics. Topics include statistical distributions, linear regression and correlation, surveys and experiments, sampling distributions, probability, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. A variety of statistical tools and software are used to explore concepts and deepen students’ conceptual understanding of the topics.
