This document discusses various methods for constructing confidence intervals to estimate population parameters using sample statistics. It covers confidence interval estimation for the mean when the population standard deviation is known and unknown, estimation for the proportion, and addresses situations involving finite populations. Factors that influence confidence interval width and formulas for determining necessary sample sizes are also presented. Examples are provided to illustrate how to set up confidence intervals and calculate required sample sizes.

When you perform a hypothesis test in statistics, a p-value helps you determine the significance of your results. ... The p-value is a number between 0 and 1 and interpreted in the following way: A small p-value (typically ≤ 0.05) indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis, so you reject the null hypothesis.

Standard Error & Confidence Intervals.pptxhanyiasimple
Certainly! Let's delve into the concept of **standard error**.
## What Is Standard Error?
The **standard error (SE)** is a statistical measure that quantifies the **variability** between a sample statistic (such as the mean) and the corresponding population parameter. Specifically, it estimates how much the sample mean would **vary** if we were to repeat the study using **new samples** from the same population. Here are the key points:
1. **Purpose**: Standard error helps us understand how well our **sample data** represents the entire population. Even with **probability sampling**, where elements are randomly selected, some **sampling error** remains. Calculating the standard error allows us to estimate the representativeness of our sample and draw valid conclusions.
2. **High vs. Low Standard Error**:
- **High Standard Error**: Indicates that sample means are **widely spread** around the population mean. In other words, the sample may not closely represent the population.
- **Low Standard Error**: Suggests that sample means are **closely distributed** around the population mean, indicating that the sample is representative of the population.
3. **Decreasing Standard Error**:
- To decrease the standard error, **increase the sample size**. Using a large, random sample minimizes **sampling bias** and provides a more accurate estimate of the population parameter.
## Standard Error vs. Standard Deviation
- **Standard Deviation (SD)**: Describes variability **within a single sample**. It can be calculated directly from sample data.
- **Standard Error (SE)**: Estimates variability across **multiple samples** from the same population. It is an **inferential statistic** that can only be estimated (unless the true population parameter is known).
### Example:
Suppose we have a random sample of 200 students, and we calculate the mean math SAT score to be 550. In this case:
- **Sample**: The 200 students
- **Population**: All test takers in the region
The standard error helps us understand how well this sample represents the entire population's math SAT scores.
Remember, the standard error is crucial for making valid statistical inferences. By understanding it, researchers can confidently draw conclusions based on sample data. 📊🔍

Inferential statistics are often used to compare the differences between the treatment groups. Inferential statistics use measurements from the sample of subjects in the experiment to compare the treatment groups and make generalizations about the larger population of subjects.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
