Today's class recap:
  • Discussed how to describe an association--what should we include?
  • Reviewed sketching scatterplot, finding r, R^2, and the equation of the line of best fit with our calculator (using the balance score/ankle range of motion context on our slide)
  • Described the association between ankle range of motion and balance score (sample response)
  • Discussed how to determine strength based on graph
  • Discussed/took notes on correlation (r)
  • Tuesday's Class:
    • Notes on introductory vocab: scatterplot, explanatory variable, response variable
    • Discussed lurking variables
    • Introduced how to describe an association
Friday = Math and Vocab Quiz! Start studying now!

  • Tomorrow's homework will be a practice quiz--this is below if you'd like to get a head start!
    • The questions in red are added/not on the worksheet you'll get tomorrow
    • And here is your chapter 7 vocab list: (we will discuss #'s 6-8 tomorrow)
      1. Scatterplot
      2. Explanatory Variable
      3. Response Variable
      4. Lurking Variable
      5. Describe an association (what do we describe?)
      6. Conditions for Correlation or Is a linear model appropriate? (what do we check)
      7. Outlier = a point that falls outside the general pattern in a scatterplot
      8. y-hat = predicted value
      9. Correlation
      10. Positive Association
      11. Negative Association
