This document outlines criteria for evaluating a PowerPoint presentation assignment. It is divided into 4 criteria weighted as follows:
1) Illustrating concepts from a written report (30%)
2) Creating speaking notes (30%)
3) Using a professional style to convey information graphically (30%)
4) Ensuring clarity, writing mechanics and formatting (10%).
Performance is rated on a scale from unacceptable to exemplary. The document provides grading rubrics for each criterion.

Week 1Week 1.Measurement and Description - chapters 1 and
21Measurement issues. Data, even numerically coded variables,
can be one of 4 levels - nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio. It is
important to identify which level a variable is, asthis impact the
kind of analysis we can do with the data. For example,
descriptive statistics such as means can only be done on interval
or ratio level data.Please list under each label, the variables in
our data set that belong in each
group.NominalOrdinalIntervalRatiob.For each variable that you
did not call ratio, why did you make that decision?2The first
step in analyzing data sets is to find some summary descriptive
statistics for key variables.For salary, compa, age, performance
rating, and service; find the mean, standard deviation, and range
for 3 groups: overall sample, Females, and Males.You can use
either the Data Analysis Descriptive Statistics tool or the Fx
4. =average and =stdev functions. (the range must be found using
the difference between the =max and =min functions with Fx)
functions.Note: Place data to the right, if you use Descriptive
statistics, place that to the right as well.SalaryCompaAgePerf.

Week 2 Week 2Testing meansQ3In questions 2 and 3, be sure to
include the null and alternate hypotheses you will be testing.

Why?What are your conclusions about equal pay at this
point?The two T- Tests do offer a different conclusion given the
parameters. Why is this? The Compa variables degrade or null
the gradeUltimately , using the Compa lets us remove the
degree of impact of grade.
Week 3Week 3At this point we know the following about male
and female salaries.a.Male and female overall average salaries
are not equal in the population.b.Male and female overall
8. average compas are equal in the population, but males are a bit
more spread out.c.The male and female salary range are almost
the same, as is their age and service.d. Average performance
ratings per gender are equal.Let's look at some other factors that
might influence pay - education(degree) and performance
ratings.1Last week, we found that average performance ratings
do not differ between males and females in the population.Now
we need to see if they differ among the grades. Is the average
performace rating the same for all grades?(Assume variances
are equal across the grades for this ANOVA.)ABCDEFNull

alternate hypothesis statements. Use .05 for your significance
level in making your decisions.For full credit, you need to also
show the statistical outcomes - either the Excel test result or the
calculations you performed.1Using our sample data, construct a
95% confidence interval for the population's mean salary for
each gender. Interpret the results. How do they compare with

13. expressed as 0 and 1, they are considered dummy variables and
can be used in a multiple regression equation.Interpretation:For
the Regression as a whole:What is the value of the F statistic:
What is the p-value associated with this value: Is the p-value

your results to date, do we have an answer to the question of are
males and females paid equally for equal work?If so, which
gender gets paid more? How do we know?Which is the best
variable to use in analyzing pay practices - salary or compa?
14. Why?What is most interesting or surprising about the results we
got doing the analysis during the last 5 weeks?5Why did the
single factor tests and analysis (such as t and single factor
ANOVA tests on salary equality) not provide a complete answer
to our salary equality question?What outcomes in your life or
work might benefit from a multiple regression examination
rather than a simpler one variable test?
