This document discusses various measures of central tendency and dispersion. It defines the mean, median, mode, harmonic mean and geometric mean as measures of central tendency. It provides formulas and examples for calculating the arithmetic mean using direct and shortcut methods. The document also discusses measures of dispersion such as range, quartile deviation, mean deviation and standard deviation. It provides examples of calculating the mean, median and mode from frequency distribution tables.
DISCUSSES FOUR DIFFERENT METHODS OF CALCULATING MEAN
DIRECT METHOD
SHORT CUT METHOD
STEP DEVIATION METHOD
By ‘mean’ we refer to an Arithmetic mean. There are other types of ‘mean’ like geometric mean and harmonic mean.
Arithmetic mean is the total of the sum of all values in a collection of numbers divided by the number of numbers in a collection.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

1. Measures of Central Value: Characteristics of an
ideal measure;
2. Measures of Central Tendency - mean, median,
mode, harmonic mean and geometric mean.
3. Merits, Limitations and Suitability of averages.
4. Relationship between averages.
5. Measures of Dispersion: Meaning and Significance.
Absolute and Relative measures of dispersion -
Range, Quartile Deviation, Mean Deviation,
Standard Deviation, Coefficient of Variation,
6. Moments, Skewness, Kurtosis.
2. 1. Measures of Central Value:
An average or a measure of central tendency is an effort to
find out one single representative value to describe whole of
figures in a series.
Characteristics of an Ideal/Satisfactory Measure;
Since an average is a single representative value of the series,
it should have following characteristics-
i. Easy to understand
ii. Easy to compute
iii. Based on all the items
iv. Not affected much by extreme observations
v. Rigidly defined- Explained by an algebraic formula.
vi. Capable of further algebraic treatment- like extra use for
finding combined average
vii. Representative Value
3. 2. Measures of Central Tendency - mean, median,
mode, harmonic mean and geometric mean.
An average or a measure of central tendency is an effort to
find out one single representative value to describe whole of
figures in a series. Averages are also known as measure of
location. There are different types of statistical averages, for
the sake of convenience, we divide these measures as below;
1. Mathematical Averages: (a) Arithmetic Mean (b) Geometric
Mean (c) Harmonic Mean
2. Positional Averages: (a) Median (b) Mode
3. Business Averages: (a) Moving Average (b) Progressive
Average (c) Composite Average
4. (a) Arithmetic Mean is the quantity obtained by dividing the
sum of the items in a series by their numbers

In this mean weight is given
to different items according
to their individual or relative
importance. The value of
each item is multiplied by
its weight & sum of such
multiplication is divided by
the total of weights.
