Overview
Question 1
Now that we are at the midpoint of the course, it is important to pause and reflect on your course experience thus far. In your initial reply, answer the following questions:
- What are you doing to help yourself learn in this class that you are going to keep doing because it's working?
- What are you doing that is hindering you from learning in this class that you are going to quit doing?
- What do you think will help you improve your learning in this class that you are going to start doing?
This serves as your initial post to the discussion and is due by 11:59 p.m. EST on Saturday.
Make at least one substantive peer reply post by 11:59 p.m. EST on Tuesday.
Question 2
Two or more samples are often compared when we suspect that there are differences between the groups—for example, are cancer rates higher in one town than another, or are test scores higher in one class than another? In your chosen field, when might you want to know the mean differences between two or more groups? Please describe the situation (what groups, what measurements) including how and why it would be used. This serves as your initial post to the discussion (if you choose topic #2) and is due by 11:59 p.m. EST on Saturday.
