"Discussed conditional probability, tree diagrams, independence, counting methods, combinations and permutations. The student is doing quite well as before; she reports great grades and is constantly preparing ahead of the class. She understands the material intrinsically but needs help relating to the formulas."

"We spent the session going over many different types of hypothesis testing. We worked on one-tailed, two-tailed, comparing means, proportions, and mean difference. These questions take a long time to do so we went for an extra half hour. The main part of these problems is knowing which formulas to use when and how to interpret the results. He started to pick it up quicker with each problem we worked on."

"The student was working on an Excel datasheet. We also spent a good portion of time not just calculating, but interpreting the information for a deeper understanding of what was being portrayed behind the numbers."

"We reviewed the Practice Exam. Topics included correlation, R squared regressions, linear regressions, and analyzing data tables containing various data. The student is feeling more and more confident with the material."

"I just finished my second and last session with the student through video chat. The session today went very well once again and we continued reviewing for her statistics final that she has tomorrow morning. We covered a lot of topics and chapters: critical values using z and t, p-values, percentiles, hypotheses testing, and calculator use. Once again, we used her online homework, book, and old tests to pull examples from. She told me she felt mentally prepared for the test. "

"We review all the concepts he covered this semester. We started with confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, z, t, chi-square, and f distribution. We talked about the proper use of each test and using excel to calculate statistics. We also talked about simple and multi-variable regression equations."

"Review of small sample data and t-test for confidence interval testing. Differentiation of quadratic functions to determine minima/maxima. Forecasting using moving average, weighed average and exponential smoothing."

"We reviewed hypothesis testing in the context of discussing analysis of variance techniques. The session included a review of several homework problems and practice using a program. Finally, we discussed a research project that included measurement development, data collection, and statistical analysis. This project will also be a focus of next session."

"We continued analyzing normal distributions and using z-scores. We reviewed the concepts of confidence intervals, margin of error, and sampling distributions. We applied these concepts to various scenarios and discussed the whether samples fell outside of the expected values of a 95% confidence interval. We talked about null and alternative hypothesis and p-values in the context of the scenarios."

"During today's session the student and I reviewed Chapter 5. We began to study the Z variable and understand how to use tables to figure out probability. He has a very good understanding of probability. I asked him to work through several problems and he had no issue completing them. He also was quick to pick up on mean and standard deviation and how to apply them to a probability distribution. I can see the tremendous progress he has made over these past few weeks."

"Met with student for one half hour and covered some statistics problems given to him in class. Agreed to meet again on Thursday afternoon as the timing would be more productive. Teacher gives student the test subject matter Thursday in class and student had two days of tests scheduled. Went over the subject matter and projected a base possible score of 76 which would keep him in the game for a passing grade. Also gave him some books to use and reminded him of the website he used before. Student is smart but is not applying himself and using all resources. Also taught him test taking techniques. "
