Description For algebra-based Introductory Statistics courses. Datasets and other resources where applicable for this book are available here. Titled examples paired with unique Try It Yourself problems— Illustrates every concept in the text with one or more step-by-step examples that often conclude with an interpretation step.

These examples are numbered and titled for easy reference and are immediately followed with a similar problem which provides the opportunity for immediate practice and reinforcement. Highly graphical approach— Incorporates more than graphical displays more than twice as many as most introductory texts. Balanced Approach: the text strikes a balance between computation, decision making and conceptual understanding as endorsed by the GAISE recommendations.

A Large Variety of Real-World Applications to illustrate to students the relevance of the material they are learning. Over 1, exercises that help students build basic skills and vocabulary, use and interpret concepts, and extend concepts. Full-page chapter case study —Includes actual data from a real-world context, along with a series of thought-provoking questions designed to illustrate important concepts of the chapter and to provide students motivation for the statistical concepts they are learning.

Flexible technology —Allows the text to be used in courses with no more technology than a scientific calculator, or in courses that require frequent use of sophisticated technology tools. Gives instructors the freedom to determine the degree of technological dependency their individual course will require.

Provides more depth for instructors and students seeking to increase the technology flavor of the course. Uses and Abuses —Includes a full page in each chapter that summarizes the uses of chapter concepts, as well as a description of common misuses. Occasionally, these also include a discussion of ethical issues. Each topic in the summary listing is correlated to the appropriate chapter example s and chapter exercise s.

Also, the chapter summary contains a list of the formulas covered in the chapter. New to This Edition. Emphasize statistical literacy and develop statistical thinking: The authors accomplish this through their examples and "Picturing the World" studies. The examples, with worked-out solutions, show students the process of statistical thinking. Many examples include an interpretation step that offers a further insight or reflection on the concept presented in the example.

The Picturing the World studies provides the basis for a class discussion of a concept and allows the instructor to assess and give feedback to students' thinking.
