Suppose you are a researcher who wants to evaluate which
type of course-delivery format (online, blended, or face-to-face) leads to
the best performance in a psychological statistics class. In a paper,
identify the following:
What is your research question? (Please
remember to focus your study on the evaluation of the various types of course
delivery for statistics courses.)
What is your hypothesis (both null and
alternate)?
Is this a qualitative or quantitative design
(based on type of variable collected) and why?
What would be an example of a variable for
this study of course delivery formats that could be measured on a nominal
scale? Ordinal scale? Interval scale? Ratio scale?
Once you have collected your data on the
effectiveness of the various types of course delivery for a statistics
course, would you use inferential or descriptive statistics and why?
Create a sample frequency distribution for one
of the variables. Choose either a simple or grouped frequency distribution
and explain your choice.
