Cerritos College Spring 2011 Math 112 Elementary Statistics (Class # 20899) Syllabus Course: 112 Elementary Statistics, transferable to UC, CSU Class #: 20899, 4 units Days: MW 5:00-7:00PM Room: LA2 Text Book: Elementary Statistics, 11th Edition Author: Mario F. Triola Publisher: Pearson/Addison Wesley Instructor: Mrs. Ing-yung Tse Office Hours: by appointments Telephone: 562-860-2451 ext 4785 Website: www.cerritos.edu/itse/math112 for course notes and other essential information. Email: [email protected] (this is better than the telephone) Prerequisite: MATH 80 or MATH 80B or equivalent with a grade of Pass or “C” or higher satisfactory completion of the Math Placement Process. Calculator: A TI Graphing calculator is required. The TI-84Plus Graphing calculator is strongly recommended. A TI-83Plus graphing calculator is acceptable. Calculator will be required for tests and quizzes. Demonstration will be done with TI-84Plus. Course Description: An introduction to descriptive and inferential statistics. Topics included are mean, standard deviation, variance, probabilities, random variables, binomial probability distribution, normal probability distribution, central limit theorem, testing hypotheses, confidence intervals, t-distribution, chi-square distribution, F-distribution, linear regression, and linear correlation. Learning Outcomes: The student who successfully completes Math 112 will be able to: understand and develop the sampling techniques; interpret statistical information using tables and graphs; compute, identify, and interpret basic statistics; understand and use formulas to calculating descriptive statistics such as mean, median, variance and standard deviation; find the probabilities and critical values; analyze data, test hypotheses, draw conclusions and make statistical inferences based on sampling data; understand and appreciate the statistical application in daily life. Attendance: Attendance is essential 1. If you are absent for any classes during the first two weeks of class, you will be dropped from the class. 2. If you miss a class, it is your responsibility to contact another student (not the instructor) to find out what was missed. 3. After 5 consecutive absences you may be dropped from the class without warning. Assignments: Plan to spend 10 to 12 hours per week outside of class for reading, homework, and other assignments. 1. You are required to access the course information on line www.cerritos.edu/itse/math 112; this may include class notes, assignments, test reviews and solutions, announcements. 2. Reading – textbook and others assigned in class. 3. Homework – You must show all works, or no credit. No late homework.

(Refer to 2011 Spring Schedule of Classes page 130). Grading Policy: Total is 1000 points. Points (% of final grade) Homework Assignment 42 total 3 points each, total 126 points. (12.6%) Tests (4) 100 points each for each test, total 400 points (40%) Final Exam 200 points (20%) – comprehensive and cover all listed in the outline. Quizzes or special assignments Total 224 points (22.4%) Participation 50 points (5%) – awarded such as exit slips, warm-ups, and class participations. Final Grade A: 900 – 1000 points; B: 800 – 899 points; C: 700 – 799 points; D: 600 – 699 points; F: Below 600 points 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. You must have your textbook no later than the first test. No make up for tests and final exam. Dates for quizzes or special assignments will be announced in class. No extra credit will be used to raise the grade below C level to above C level. January 21, 2011 is the last day to drop without a “W” April 15, 2011 is the last day to drop with a “W” – it is student’s responsibility to withdraw if the attendance is no longer possible.

All electronic devices (cell phones, pagers, etc.) must be in non-audio form in classroom. No cell phone Texting during the class. Disruptive behavior will result in removal from the class. Excessive tardiness or random attendance in class will result point deduction on class participation points. Be on time to the classroom. Coming late or leave early is discourteous and a disruption to the class. If you are tardy or leave early more than three times, you will be counted as one absence.
