You want graphics? We've got graphics!

Indexed_example, originally uploaded by Mathew Mitchell.

You want 'em, well they are coming soon! But in the meantime I thought some of you might appreciate the comic strip named Indexed. These comics are developed by Jessica Hagy. Above is an example of her work. Each day a new index card chart is posted. I thought many of you might relate to this one card particularly well.

Session 7 Live Audio

I'm posting the audio from our class today for the "sickies" who missed class (Andrew, Rhonda, and Cathy). If you were at class and you want to download, then you're also welcome. I'm posting the audio at the Session 7 t-test page, but also just below:

Banner Image Removed

I'm trying an experiment. For some of you it may be easier to navigate the website if the banner image or header image is removed. I'd like to hear feedback about whether you prefer the banner image, or prefer the website as it is now (without banner image). After our next class I'll change back to a banner image showing if that's the preference of the class.

Saturday experiment

Today's class will employ a little experiment. Most of the class I'll have an EtherPad screen in front of us. This allows those in the class (and perhaps one or two who are sick at home) to engage in live comments and questions. I don't know how it will really work in practice but this is an easy tool to implement. I'll describe more in class.

For the time being you may want to check out this afternoon's interactive whiteboard brought to you by EtherPad (below). Please let me know if you have any problems accessing the EtherPad page link.

Submitting Report 2

Reports need to be submitted by noon on Saturday November 7th. Please submit electronically using the Uploads page. You can upload both documents at the same time.

Remember that we need your report document in PDF format and your spreadsheet documents in their original format (Excel, Numbers, or whatever spreadsheet program you are using). All Mac-users can save their report as a PDF directly from the print dialog box in any application they are using. Many of the Windows-users will be able to save directly to PDF from within Word (if using the newest version). Some Windows-users may need to create their PDF using the wonderful and free conversion service provided at Zamzar.com.

Session 8 Materials Ready

All of the learning materials for Session 8 on correlation are ready to download. Make sure you can download these items before this upcoming Saturday class. If you experience problems, then let me know. I'll bring a USB flash drive that you can use to transfer the materials to your computer in class.

Raylene the Statistics Coach

Although I've posted Raylene Potter's contact information a couple times earlier in the semester, some people are still asking about her contact info. So, to make it super awesome easy I've added her contact info to the sidebar area on the right. Notice just under the due soon sidebar entries you now see an area titled statistics coach that gives both Raylene's email and phone information. I hope this is useful to some of you that haven't contacted Raylene before but now wish to use her services.
