Items related to Statistics (The Quick Notes Learning System)
Synopsis
Quick Notes Statistics is for people who want to learning the material covered in a traditional college statistics course or for people who need to learn statistics to enhance their career. Each learning unit of Quick Notes Statistics begins with a concise topic outline (usually 2- pages). Keeping descriptive material to a few pages makes learning difficult concepts easier. Each topic outline is followed a one or two page practice set and a one or two pages of Quick Questions. The order of practice problems follow the topic outline so students need look back only 2 pages to about the same page location of the topic
outline to get help when doing a problem. This similar format is followed with Quick Questions. Learning units are divided into four parts. Each part ends with a formula review and a test. The Professor's Answer Book provides complete solutions to all practices set problems, Quick Questions, and test questions. These complete solutions help a student understand difficult concepts.

From the Author
About 15 of my Franklin Pierce College statistics classes between 1992 and 1997 received the learning outlines, practice sets, quick questions, and tests contained in this book as class handouts. After each class, all parts of the book were refined based upon my classroom observations and student suggestions. The result is a clear, concise presentation of basic statistics. All of the approximately 200 students who have used the latest edition published in 1998 report the book makes a very difficult subject much easier to learn. The book is designed for use with SPSS , MINITAB , and StataQuest. This book is good for students wanting to graduate quickly by passing the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) test in statistics and for those wanting to test out of an MBA prerequisite. It also makes good class notes for people involved with a distance learning college class.
From the Back Cover
Quick Notes work because they follow The Quick Notes Philosophy. The Theory of Optimum Amounts There exists for every CONCEPT to be learned, an optimum amount of explanatory material. There exists for every TOPIC to be learned, an optimum number of concepts to be integrated. There exists for every SUBJECT to be learned, an optimum number of topics to be mastered. By limiting explanatory material to optimum amounts, Quick Notes maximizes learning. The Theory of Optimum Placement There exists for every CONCEPT to be learned and integrated into a TOPIC of concern, a unique place- ment of elements that will maximize learning. By placing related elements on the same page or facing pages, Quick Notes maximizes learning. The Optimum Relationship Between Content and Process Education is the learning of content and process. Content is the what of learning it's the arithmetic of mathematics and the grammar of communication. Process is the application of content it's the problem- solving of mathematics and the writing of communication. Learning begins with content and expands to process. By making the learning of content easier, Quick Notes makes the learning of process easier.
