Objectives: Untitled document
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
1. Apply statistics-related pre-algebra skills necessary for success in Elementary Statistics.
2. Apply statistics-related algebra skills necessary for success in Elementary Statistics.
3. Apply descriptive statistics to communicate findings in the context of the data.
4. Apply knowledge of linear functions to construct, use, and interpret mathematical models to
    represent and communicate relationships in quantitative data.
5. Apply proportional reasoning, percents, and fractions to probability problems found in an
    Elementary Statistics course.
6. Recognize the distinction between sample statistics and population parameters and interpret
    the results of statistical inference contextually.
7. Use technology to solve problems found in an Elementary Statistics course, such as
    calculating probabilities, data exploration, regression, and statistical inference.
8. Apply effective learning strategies for success in college.

    D. Exponents, square roots, scientific notation
    E. Simplification of algebraic expressions; order of operations  
     F. Graphing fractions, decimals, and signed numbers on a number line
    G. Graphing ordered pairs in the Cartesian coordinate system
 
II. Topics from Beginning and Intermediate Algebra: Review of Algebra Topics, as Needed, in
     the Context of Statistics That May Include:
    A. Evaluation of expressions and formulas
    B. Mathematical models
    C. Linear functions, constant rate of change, graphing, interpreting slope and y-intercept in
         context
    D. Scatterplots and regression lines
    E. Area under the graph of a function
 
III. Topics from Elementary Statistics: Concurrent Support for Statistical Topics That May
