STAtistics Monthly Schedule

(AP Statistics, Period F)

M 1/7/02

HW due: Read §7.2 and start studying for the midterm exam. Midterm covers pp.1-410 from text, or if you prefer the Barron's book, topics 1-11 except for binomial and geometric distributions and the normal approximation to the binomial. The Barron's book is an excellent source of multiple-choice and free-response questions; both types will be represented on your midterm.

 

W 1/9/02

"Quest" (60 points) on Chapters 6 and 7.

 

Th 1/10/02

Discuss §7.2 and review for midterm. (If you come today, you do not need to come tomorrow.)

 

W 1/9/02

Discuss §7.2 and review for midterm.

 

T 1/15/02

Midterm exam covering Chapters 1-7, 11:30 a.m., Room R. The exam will last 2 hours. Bring pencils and calculator, but do not bring scratch paper. Formula sheets and paper will be provided. Many of the questions, both multiple-choice and free-response, will be taken from the Barron's book (topic areas 1-11, excluding binomial and geometric distributions and the normal approximation to the binomial).

Free dress is in effect for the entire week. The announcement Dr. Piazza made at lunch on Fri. 1/11 was rescinded in the afternoon at the faculty meeting. You may tell your friends that they do not have to wear coat and tie (unless, of course, they wish to!).

 

M 1/21/02

Holiday (no class).

 

T 1/22/02

Faculty meetings (no class).

 

W 1/23/02

Th 1/24/02

M 1/28/02

HW due today: Read §8.1, write #8.19 and 8.22.

 

T 1/29/02

HW due today: Finish filling out the CFU questions and read §8.2. Look at and begin working on #8.30, 8.31, 8.39, 8.40, 8.44, 8.45. If you cannot finish any of these, you must at least read each question and make a written list of the specific questions you have. "I don't understand" is not a question.

No additional HW due, but I expect Tuesday's assignment to be complete this time.

 

Th 1/31/02
