CEdO540 Week 1

Statistics. This assignment has taught me that I am much better at reporting statistics than calculating them. I have to admit, I am totally confused. I have a pretty good understanding of mean, median and mode, but not so much with the rest of it. I'm actually at a loss as to what I should be posting in my blog, since this is probably the first time that I am speechless about the topic...simply because I don't understand it! I'm glad that we're being introduced to the topic, but I really can't wrap my head around the logistics or the process of determining stats.

On a personal note, and my groupmates agreed when we met last night, that it doesn't help my concentration any when I'm worried about the budget reform bill that is looming these last few days. If it passes, one has to wonder, is getting a master's degree in my best interest anymore if I become too expensive for the district to keep me on staff?

  1. Mary, I think a lot of us are wondering just what will happen. Maybe we should gather statisitcs about the "gov".
