Synopsis

In this assignment, you are to demonstrate your understanding of concepts, tools, and/or techniques covered in the course readings and class activities for this week. You will demonstrate this through completion of selected practice exercises at the end of assigned chapter readings. Additionally, you will work on the problems within your group by discussing and sharing your thoughts about each problem, but you have to submit your own individual assignment. You will also submit your peer evaluation form with your assignment.

You are to be thorough in your responses. As you do this, constantly ask yourself (and reflect) on how you would apply the same statistical concepts and techniques to any other project or to your upcoming dissertation. Even if the questions in the exercises are worded as yes/no questions, you are expected to provide an explanation and justification for your answers. As a doctoral student, you are also expected to provide evidence and explanation for your responses and claims, and show supporting work for all your answers.
