The above due dates are for your statistics group project. You must be a member of a
group for the statistics project. Group sizes will be of 2-4 students each. Join a group for
working on the statistics project as soon as possible. Then send me an e-mail with the
full names of everyone in your group by Thursday, Jan. 29, 2009. Each person in the
group must send me such an e-mail so that I may check for consistency.
Note that, for the most part, everyone in the group will get assigned the same amount
of points for their one statistics group project. Teamwork is required. It is important that
you work together to design, execute and document the project. You may want to:
identify times during the week that you can get together, clarify the expectations of each
team member, and discuss how you will contact each other (e-mail and phone numbers).
You may want to identify a team leader, secretary, computer expert, typist, liaison with
the instructor, someone to write the proposal, someone to write the data exploration,
someone to write the final analysis, etc. However, it is up to the group how the work is
broken up. Each member of the team should expect to take on major tasks.
Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions or concerns.
