DIY Activity 11.1 Calculation-free inference for the population proportion

This is a DIY Activity. In this course, there will be lots of things I expect you to do, but where I don't necessarily want to see your work. If we were meeting in person, we'd allocate some time in class to thinking through each of these activities – because we're meeting online, it's your job to allocate time to them, and to work through them as best you can. I don't expect you to get everything "right" on these (to the extent that there are right answers) – these questions are designed to get you thinking.

When you finish, mark it as done! How do I mark a content page as done for a module requirement?

Where to go with questions

If you have questions about this or any other DIY activity, you have a few options about how to address them:

Raise it with your study group. Create a discussion within your study group. To do this, click "People" in the course navigation; then find your study group under "Groups"; click "Discussions"; and click the "+ Discussion" button in the upper right.
Bring it to the course-wide Q&A discussion. In the Q&A about this course, you can ask whatever questions you like, and your fellow students and I will try to help you answer them.
Raise it during a study session. At the beginning of each study session, there's time for you to raise concerns or questions about the week's activities. Just ask, and we'll talk about this activity! Click "ConferZoom" in the navigation menu to see when study sessions are held.
Sign up for an office hour appointment, or send me a Canvas message or email. If you're shy about asking your question in a place where other students can see it, or if you really think only you will benefit from hearing the answer to it, you can ask me privately. Send me a Canvas message, or if you prefer, sign up for an office hour appointment so we can talk over Zoom. Click "ConferZoom" in the navigation menu, and then click "Appointment Booking" to find office hour slots you can sign up for.

Instructions

Find the activity at the link below.

You'll find yourself on a Desmos screen. It will ask you whether you want to sign in – I'd recommend you click "Sign in with Google," and use your CCSF Gmail login to sign in to the activity. That way, you can come back and view your work later, if you get interrupted or if you learn something new later and want to come back to your work. But if you need to, you can click "Continue without signing in."

Then it will ask you to enter your name – please enter a name that I will know is you! (I won't grade your work, but if I have a comment or suggestion I want to know who to direct it to.)

Work through the questions as best you can, at your own pace.

This activity will probably take you one to two hours. You should aim to finish it by the end of Week 11 (Saturday, October 31).
