Why Study this Statistics Course?
Do you want to gain a solid foundation in statistics? Then, this online statistics course will give you what you need! This course will teach you all the fundamental knowledge that there is in statistics. Such as how to differentiate two groups using a t-test, how to correlate two variables, how to apply measures of central tendency in research, and much more.
Statistics is an important skill for anyone involved or is interested in the measurement and prediction of trends in either markets, science, the environment, or health science. It is one of the true tools that are cross-disciplinary.
Course Aims:
- Become familiar with different statistical terms and the elementary representation of statistical data.
- Become familia with distributions, and the application of distributions in processing data.
- Apply measures of central tendency in solving research questions
- Demonstrate and explain the normal curve, percentiles and standard scores.
- Explain methods of correlation that describes the relationship between two variables.
- Make predictions with regression equations.
- Determine how much error to expect when making the predictions.
- Explain the basic concepts of underlying the use of statistics to make inferences.
- Analyse the difference between the means of two groups with the t Test.
- Describe the use of ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) in analysing the difference between two or more groups.
- Apply the concept of Non Parametric Statistics
