Statistics Consulting

There are two sources of statistics consulting help for this course. First, as all of you are aware, Raylene Potter serves as the official course statistics consultant. Most of you met her through the Technology Workshops given over the first two teaching weekends. Raylene previously wrote:

My planned onsite office hours will be from 5:15 - 6:15 pm, every teaching weekend Saturday, in your Applied Stats classroom. I also have scheduled phone-in or online office hours from 5:00 - 7:00 pm every Friday. Please feel free to call me or email me at any time. I will try to respond to messages within a reasonable timeframe.

My cell phone is: (831) 334 - 7438

Second, in addition to Raylene, if you live near USF then you may want to take advantage of our wonderful Learning & Writing Center. They offer specific help for graduate students in APA-style writing and statistics.

To learn more about their services you can download an eight minute interview conducted with Dr. Charlene Lobo-Soriano, Director of the Learning and Writing Center. Charlene addresses three key issues: (1) what services the Learning and Writing Center offers doctoral students, (2) what kinds of support it does not provide, and (3) what are the specific steps students need to take in order to set up either a writing or math consultation at the Center.

You can visit the USF Learning & Writing Center webpage for more details. Alternatively you can phone the Center directly at: (415) 422-6713. The Center is located in Cowell Hall 227. No appointments can be made by leaving a phone message: instead you need to talk to a live person. Statistics consultations can be arranged on weekends with an advance appointment. You can also arrange statistics tutorials for other times also.
