Smooth Progression into
Regression: Students Can
Use Regression Models |

Time:
Saturday 8:00AM-11:00AM

Session
Type:
Minicourse |
|
Level:
9 to 12
|
|

Description:
Participants will be introduced to the
advantages of regression models as a general approach for data analysis
requirements in applied research. Examples will illustrate how this
approach can not only accomplish many seemingly different data analyses
but provide the power to create analyses for unique research questions.
This minicourse will focus on
bringing the combined power of Regression/Linear Models and Computers to
students who are engaged in applied research problems. The approach
to be presented focuses on using minimum mathematics skills that students
bring to the problem and introducing new concepts only as needed in
the data analysis. The philosophy is to "give the students the
power they deserve"!
