Description

This workbook is for students enrolled in a basic course in statistics and should help them see the information in data. Each chapter explores a single statistical concept by investigating a data set. The book demonstrates that you cannot investigate a data set without the assistance of a computer package, in this case - Minitab for Windows 95. The commands necessary to use this package are explained in each chapter. This workbook is built around the premise that student must "do statistics" in order to truly understand the statistical concepts. Thus, each chapter reinforces a topic from a standard statistics course. The student can work independently or as a member of a team. The workbook is self-contained in that all of the instructions needed to use the software are explained in the appropriate chapter.
