Greetings from Denver - Weeks 4, 4.1 & 4.2

This week's assignments have brought us even deeper into using statistics in the classroom setting. We completed a 4th worksheet that had several problem dealing with conversion and comparison of Z-scores or standard scores into percentiles.

Our group met to discuss and finish up our group survey project that will once and for all answer the most important non-debt related question in the world - which do you like more... Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings? The results will boggle your mind!

This has been the most practical statistics course that I've had. I guess grade distributions and percentiles are a bit easier to wrap my head around than the tossing of coins and rolling of dice!
