Level 2 Statistical Analysis
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr F. Cheung.
This course is designed for students who are already experiencing success in the 11MDXF - Data Exploration course and who wish to follow a Statistics pathway. It is also open to students who have been enrolled in 11MTRF - Mathematical Theory & Reasoning and 11MTDF - Mathematics in Three Dimensions in their Year 11. There is one externally assessed standard in this course; Probability Methods, which introduces Probability Theory and The Normal Distribution and leads on to Level 3 Statistics (3MAS). Students will also study interpretation of Statistical Reports, developing and performing Statistical Experiments as well as making Informal Statistical Inferences on populations.
