Course Description:
Are you in the dark about stats? Mark Twain referred to Lies, damned lies, and statistics. Others have mentioned that while figures cannot lie, liars sure can figure. Want to be one of them? No math, no formulas, just the basics. What are contingencies, what is a correlation? What does it mean to say a difference is "significant" in the statistical sense? Well, ok, a little math, but the idea is to understand data, what data can tell us, and what data cannot. Come be amazed at how much sense statistics can make if well-taught!
