Statistics
Course Description
This course introduces fundamental tools of quantitative methods in research such as data collection, organization, presentation, analysis, and interpretation. Attention is given to tabulation, graphic presentation of data, measure of central tendency, variability, the normal curve, probability, and statistical inference, linear correlation, and research methods. Students will conduct statistical analyses using a dataset provided in the course.
Topics include but are not limited to graphical and numerical summaries of data, distributions, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, inference in linear models, and analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Highly Recommended Prerequisite: College Algebra (MATH111) or equivalent
This course is the first in a two part series covering a general study of life processes, emphasizing basic concepts of biology suitable as a general education elective for non-science majors.
Course Structure
Lectures
Classes begin with intensive lectures (up to five hours) led by experienced instructors. Through a mix of presentations and small-group discussions, students learn to tie key foundational concepts to clinical practice and other real-world applications. Interactive Online classes provide group-based virtual learning through Zoom. Classes happen in real-time (i.e. in a synchronous format) with required attendance during a set schedule. Self-paced online classes allow students to study on their own schedule (i.e. in an asynchronous format), as long as students meet certain assignment due dates and communicate regularly with their instructor. Students will meet individually or in small groups with instructors as needed via Zoom.
Student Support
Tutoring in any subject is available to fit student schedules. SCU students can also take advantage of exclusive health sciences workshops and symposiums offered by the University.
