Comments/contents:
A zoom event will take place on Tuesday, November 3rd, 2020 at 1 p.m. to introduce the semester. Course participants can find access and further information under "Material" below.

The course takes place asynchronously: all videos and documents are permanently available on www.openolat.de. There is also an open consultation hour as a voluntary additional offer:

                                     Tuesday at 1 p.m.

I will solve one of the exercises live: if you do not want to attend the office hours, you have the solution available. Afterwards you can ask questions about all videos / exercises / organization, the questions do not have to be limited to the respective week.

Please note: You have 6 SWS per week Statistics (exception old examination regulations).

The basic statistics module consists of the courses Statistics 1 (4 SWS) and Statistics 2 (2 SWS). The contents build on each other. The contents (6 SWS) are examined in an exam. Select Zug A or Zug B depending on your time preference. If you have already been registered for Statistics 1 in the past, you can only register for Statistics 2. This is due to technical reasons (Stine-specific). Then sign up for statistic 2 only. You then write the exam like everyone else.

Content

• Point estimator
  
• Confidence Intervals (Interval Estimators)
  
• Hypothesis tests
  

Learning objectives:
The students

• can apply basic methods of inductive statistics and transfer them to topics of sociology and economics.
  
• are able to use the methods.
  
• are able to study the specialist literature independently by developing the terminology and to professionally and critically interpret research results with regard to the methods used and their assumptions.
  

Didactic concept:
In instructional videos, topics are worked out on the tablet, especially by hand, and the students are often asked to pause the video. This enables the students to individually develop, understand, write down and collaborate on each topic. The videos can be played faster, slower or repeatedly in OpenOlat if required. Numerous exercises with detailed sample solutions then enable the students to apply the knowledge you have gained. At the end of the week, voluntary online MC self-tests provide an overview of the content and your own level of knowledge with a playful character. The asynchronous content is supplemented by Zoom consultation hours for questions several times a week.
