or material is spiraled into homework problemsand test problems. When released free responses are assigned, some arefrom much earlier material so that the students are constantly exposed toearlier learned material.Course ProjectsThe course projects are in the form of extended writing assignments or oralpresentations. These are formal, therefore, form and technical adequacy areenforced. Some examples are given below. Students write up a summary of a magazine or newpaper article thatinvolves a statistical study. They are asked to identify the keycomponents of the study (who, what, where, why, how, etc.) and lookfor examples of misrepresentations or poor reasoning. More stock isput into their writing as they have just scratched the surface of thecourse material. Nielsen Data Project. Students input the Nielsen ratings from thecurrent week of television shows. They use Fathom to createappropriate charts, graphs, and summary statistics. They then write apaper comparing the viewership of the different television networks.Students then create a five minute presentation to an advertisingexecutive to tell what stations, shows, times, or days of week bring inthe most viewers.

Students are to design a taste test. They are expected to incorporateall stages of the design process from design (randomization,blindness, etc.) to data collection to a descriptive report of the results. Casino Lab. Students simulate different games (modified casinogames). They answer questions based on the results they got fromtheir simulation. Then they calculate the theoretical probabilitiesassociated with the specific game.As inference lends itself to lab work, the number and frequency of labsincrease as the year progresses. My expectations regarding work qualityalso increase. The students are required to connect their projects into thelarger scientific context.
