Guideline for Student Participants

1.

Always follow your instructor's instructions

  • In your class, you may participate in the real-time online activity, or you may use the data collected by other classes.  Therefore, you must follow the instructions given by your instructor.


2.


Read the instructions of each activity.

  • The problem, objectives, key concepts, the required equipment for the activity.

3.

How to conduct the Real-Time Online Activity.

  • An Activity Code is required for each activity.  If your class participates in the real-time online activity, your instructor will give you an Activity Code for each activity.

  • Only one data entry is allowed for each student.  Please check that your data is correct before submitting the data.  The number of surveys allowed for you class 
    is the same as your class size.  If a student enters the data twice, then someone
    will not be able to enter the data.

4.

How to download data.

• Data can be selected in many ways.  Your instructor will either ask you to 
  select data based on his/her instructions or ask you to access the data
  that your instructor had downloaded in advance.  Therefore, you must 
  follow your instructor's instruction.
 

5.

How to analyze data.

     • Again, you must follow your instructor's instruction.  You may be asked to use the
       software available in your lab, or to use the online analysis tool, namely  StatCrunch
       
at http://www.statcrunch.com.
     • To use the online software Stat Crunch:
       (1) go to the StatCrunch site
       (2) click on "Fire it Up" to sign up for your free account
       (3) follow the instruction given by your instructor to lead you to use the online
           analysis tool.
 

6.

How do I know if I understand the project.

     • At the end of each activity, there is an online assessment exercise.  You can work
       on these problems after the completion of the activity.
     • There is a set of suggested questions/projects at the end of each activity as well. 
        Your instructor may assign some or all of them as homework or project activities.
