Descripción del curso
Statistics is the science that deals with the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data. Having a solid foundation in statistics will help you effectively work with your data to test hypotheses and uncover insights that can help solve your problems. This course is designed to give you that foundation in statistics. Using Google Sheets functions, you'll dive into averages, distributions, hypothesis testing, and conclude the course by applying your newfound knowledge in a case study. Along the way, you'll work with a variety of datasets ranging from eBay auctions to train ridership to historical presidential approval ratings. Enjoy!
Comprehensive Curriculum
This course offers a comprehensive curriculum covering the fundamental aspects of statistical analysis. You'll start with the basics of data collection and move on to exploring different types of data and their properties. We'll delve into descriptive statistics, teaching you how to summarize and interpret data using measures like mean, median, and mode. You'll also learn about probability and its role in statistics, including concepts such as probability distributions and expected values.
Practical Application and Case Studies
One of the unique aspects of this course is the emphasis on practical application. You'll not only learn the theory behind statistical methods but also how to apply them in real-world scenarios using Google Sheets. This hands-on approach is further enhanced by a series of case studies. These case studies, using diverse datasets such as eBay auctions, train ridership, and historical presidential approval ratings, will provide you with the opportunity to apply your knowledge and skills in analyzing and interpreting real data. By the end of the course, you'll be able to conduct your own analyses and draw meaningful conclusions from data sets in various contexts.
