Statistics for Teaching Advanced Science: Part 8 Choosing the Most Appropriate Stats for Your Data

This is the culminating workshop for the Statistics for Advanced Level Science series. In this session, we will compare the application of different hypothesis tests and discuss how more than one type of statistical analysis may be appropriate for the same set of data. We will look for the key components of research questions or data sets that indicate choices for analysis and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each. In teams, we will collaborate to create a dichotomous key for choosing an appropriate method so you have a guiding diagram to consult when you are advising your own students. It is suggested that you take the Part 5-7 workshops or are comfortable with the methods of hypothesis testing covered in the previous workshops so you can participate fully.

This 1.5-hour online, interactive Zoom workshop is open to math and science teachers of all grade levels.
