Samenvatting
Now available with Macmillan’s ground-breaking online learning platform Achieve, The Practice of Statistics in the Life Sciences gives biology students an introduction to statistical practice all their own. It covers essential statistical topics with examples and exercises drawn from across the life sciences, including the fields of nursing, public health, and allied health.
Achieve for The Practice of Statistics in the Life Sciences integrates outcome-based learning objectives and a wealth of examples with assessment in an easy-to-use interface. Students are provided with rich digital resources that solidify conceptual understanding, as well as homework problems with hints, answer-specific feedback, and a fully worked solution, designed to teach as they assess.
New tot this edition:
- Video Technology Manuals – brief instructional videos that provide step-by-step instructions for working with with CrunchIt!, Excel, SPSS, TI-83/84 calculators, JMP, Minitab, R, RCmdr, and RStudio, to visualize key topics in introductory statistics.
- StatTutor Tutorials – digital tutorials that explore important concepts and procedures in a presentation that combines video, audio and interactive features. The newly revised format includes built-in, assignable assessment questions to answer while students progress through the videos.
- Downloadable data files available in JMP, ASCII, Excel, TI, Minitab, SPSS, R and CSV formats. Exercises and examples that utilize data sets are clearly marked in PSLS 4e with an icon and a descriptive title so that it is easy to find the relevant data file.
