• Today we're going to wrap up Packet 3: Sampling Distribution of a Proportion

• Links:
  • Please watch Brooke's Sampling distribution of the sample proportion at some point. It will help you finish off Packet 3.

  • StatCrunch instructions for packet 2 (and IMath homework):
    • Load the Stop and Frisk Data for packet 2. Click on My Data, then "Upload data set".

      Under "Select data source", choose "WWW address", and make sure to set the delimiter to "comma" (because this is a "csv" (comma-separated values) file.

    • Once the data is loaded, click on "Graph" or "Table".
    • Alternatively, you may want to join my "group" on Statcrunch. That way you can access the data more quickly. It's Sta205-Long, if you want to add yourself into that group.
    • For the IMath homework, you'll need the Bipolar Depression Study data. Same thing: Load it by "WWW address", and make sure to set the delimiter to "comma" (because this is a "csv" (comma-separated values) file (or get it from the group).
