Material Detail

This is a free online course offered by the Saylor Foundation.

'This course will introduce you to a number of statistical tools and techniques that are routinely used by modern statisticians for a wide variety of applications.  First, we will review basic knowledge and skills that you learned in MA121: Introduction to Statistics.  Units 2–5 will introduce you to new ways to design experiments and to test hypotheses, including multiple and nonlinear regression and nonparametric statistics.  You will learn to apply these methods to building models to analyze complex, multivariate problems.  You will also learn to write scripts to carry out these analyses in R, a powerful statistical programming language.  The last unit is designed to give you a grand tour of several advanced topics in applied statistics.'
