Emphasis is placed on verbalizing concepts, problems and results of statistical analysis. This will help students learn how to start a problem, complete the calculations, and report the results in a way that makes sense to a non-statistician.
Each concept is introduced with a brief but plausible explanation followed by Worked Examples. The Worked Examples will provide students with the necessary practice that they need in order to succeed at the subject.
Emphasis is also placed on ‘learning through doing’ problems. Excel is used to encourage students in doing problems and to enhance understanding (with links to datasets online). Minitab printouts are also included in the text.
Skills Development Exercises with brief solutions are included within the chapters, and Progress Exercises on theory and applications are provided at the end of each chapter. Solutions to all the Worked Examples and Progress Exercises are available as an appendix.
Web-based supplementary materials will be provided for lecturers adopting the text, including additional exercises and solutions, excel datasets and exercises, PowerPoint slides with key formula, figures and tables.
