DIY Activity 14.3 Practice: Comparing Population Means

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

Note: For activities that are just Google documents, you can answer the questions in whatever format you like. You can't edit the linked copy of the document because it has to remain the same for everyone to use—but you can make a copy, or you can print it, or you can just write the answers in your notebook! Remember, the point is that you learn from thinking about these questions—answer them in whatever format will enable you to learn best.

This activity will probably take you 1-2 hours. You should aim to finish it by the end of Week 14 (Saturday, November 21).
