540 wk 1
Wow! I hate stats. I am not a big fan of math even though my grades in the past have not been bad, but it does not come quickly to me at all. I took an accelerated stats class in college, got like a B+ or A- and hated it. I am not sure what the correlation is between this class and the rest of the program, but I am eager to find out. I do not collect any data or use a lot of stats in my life or classroom. I will from time to time review a statistical finding that interests me, but I could definitely live without it. I have had my doubts about other classes over that last 10 months, but I will find it difficult to make this useful in my daily life. I will keep an open mind because I do view myself as a lifelong learner, but the outlook is bleak.

I think the concepts that we are going to cover will be easier to understand because we will be applying them instead of just learning what they are, or so I hope.
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to look at different ways that we both could use statistics in our automotive courses, other than just using it to document quiz/test or homework scores.
Keeping an open mind is all that one can ask. Who knows, you may be surprised - hopefully in a positive way!
