 Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty - a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture.  Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

This course will cover the same material as the 18-week Fall/Spring course but will be presented in a 9 Module 6-week format so be prepared to put in about 25 hours per week to master the material.   All sections have an orientation meeting, a supplemental orientation (not required) and 3 scheduled exams. Please see the syllabus for details.  Since there are three sections, you can, space providing, attend any of the three orientation meetings and exam times/dates.  Please email me ASAP if you cannot attend your assigned time.  Any student who does not attend the orientation and does not contact me prior to the meeting, may be dropped from the course.  During this meeting I will be demonstrating the course management system, and discussing the syllabus.

 

 

Online Math 142- 5352/5353
Fall 2008
Statistics with Probability
bullet Syllabus
This course covers the same material as the on-campus version and is presented as 15 modules in an 18-week format. Although the course is not "self-paced", you can decide when, during each week, to do all the required work. The typical student spends about 12-15 hours per week to master the material for this 4-unit course. In addition to the text work, students will be visiting exciting websites each week to view statistics in real life, take weekly online quizzes (open book) and participate in a supportive and informative classroom discussion board. Students will be using an interactive online program to complete weekly homework assignments and quizzes. There will be three on-campus exams and students may use a note card with formulas for each exam so memorizing formulas will not be necessary. The mandatory orientation is on Saturday, August 23, 2007 2-3:30 p.m. in MA101. For more information, click on the syllabus to the left.
