5.1 Assignment: Reading and Remediation

  Providing background and descriptive statistics is like a literature review section of a dissertation. You review and communicate the analysis on the raw data. You present visual representations of the data to give meaning to the raw data. 

1. An optional supplementary textbook is OpenIntro Statistics, and you can read the concepts there.
2. Use the lab file WS5Practice to practice the Excel skills (includes an Excel hands-on video inside the spreadsheet as a link).
3. Use the file WS5Homework to demonstrate the Excel skills. Each of the three problems is worth 20 points, for a total of 60 points possible for this assignment.
4. When you have completed your assignment, save a copy for yourself and submit a copy to your instructor by the end of the workshop.
