Using the accompanying Student Grades data, construct a scatter
chart for midterm versus final exam grades and add a linear
trendline. What is the model? If a student scores 7878 on the
midterm, what would you predict her grade on the final exam to
be?

Professor Moriarty has never taken a formal statistics course;
however, he has heard about the bell-shaped curve and has some
knowledge of the Empirical Rule for normal distributions. Professor
Moriarty teaches as Honors Quantum Physics class in which he grades
on the bell curve. He assigns letter grades to his students' tests
by assuming a normal distribution and utilizing the Empirical Rule.
The Professor reasons that if IQ and SAT scores follow a normal
distribution, then his students' scores must...

a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean test score for
all students.
b. Interpret this 95% CI for the population mean.
c. What is the margin of error?

Since we are attempting to examine the behavior of a class of
students, the behavior of an individual (as we calculated in
objective 1) is really of little concern to us. Assuming that there
are 30 students enrolled for a typical class, use the central limit
theorem to calculate the following:
• What would be the shape of the
distribution of the average class grade of these 30 students?
• What would be the average class
average of...

The Data
A central tenet to being a good instructor, I believe, is to be a
reflective practitioner of your craft. From time to time I find it
to be necessary to review and reflect on my work as an instructor
from a grade perspective. On our moodle page you will find a link
to a second word document titled “300 Grades”. This data sheet
contains both the alphanumeric grade (page 1) and the numerical
equivalent (page 2) for every...
