ELEMSTA Course Materials

I am almost done with the task of compiling my teaching materials for Elementary Statistics (ELEMSTA). I even bought four clear file folders to host each of the four modules:
  • Module 1 - Introduction and Data Organization
  • Module 2 - Descriptive Statistics, Probability, Probability Distributions, and The Normal Distribution
  • Module 3 - Confidence Intervals, Estimation, and Hypothesis Testing
  • Module 4 - Correlation, Regression, and Analysis of Variance
For each module, I have the following:
  • Handout
  • Presentation (gives an overview of the module)
  • Problem Set(s)
  • Pair Work
  • Quiz
  • Teacher's Guide (only the one for Module 1 is complete)
I am also compiling/constructing test items for eventual uploading to DLS-CSB's Moodle installation. I intend to use Moodle extensively for my students' practice exercises and online quizzes. Using Moodle will save me a lot of time on checking papers and will also allow me to gather useful summary data on my students' performance.

Next in line are my ALGEBRA course materials.
