Chapter 1: 31 August 2006

Today was an introduction to Statistical Concepts, and how we test theories. Specifically, we introduced the concept of Null and Alternative hypothesis, and discussed under what circumstances we choose one over the other. The links for the multimedia lectures are given below:

First Day

The multimedia lectures are now available from the first day of class. As the two sections will be in sync, I will generally only post the link from one of the two lectures for each class. For this particular day, I am posting both the 12:30 - 1:45 (Section 001), and 3:45 - 5:00 (Section 002) lectures.

I will send you an e-mail with your community ID, and access key so that you can access these lectures.

Also, some while some students could not hear me well today, it will not be possible for me to use a microphone, as this will interfere with the recordings in class.

Chapter 1 Notes

Lecture notes for Chapter 1 are now available in powerpoint and pdf formats. After your class, I will post the link for the multimedia lectures. Note that the multimedia lectures will contain all information on the lecture notes, as well as any information I write and speak in class. You will be able to print these multimedia lectures, in addition to listening to them.

First Post

This is my first attempt at using blogs to support teaching. This blog will primarily contain links to the multimedia lectures for my Fundamentals of Business Statistics course. The lectures in class will be captured using Lecture123, and can be viewed over the web or as a podcast. After each class, I will post the link to that lecture. If you are using software like iTunes, you can also subscribe to the feed by clicking on the RSS feed button at the bottom right of the blog.

Feel free to comment here. Though, if you have questions about the subject matter, do so as part of listening to the lectures using Lecture123. That way, both your question, and my response will be available to all students.
