The student and I discussed her needs in terms of running a meta-analysis. She sent me a summary of her data (in terms of each study she gathered results from). Since raw data was not available, a weighted-average approach was used by weighting studies by their standard errors. I organized the dataset into a format that will make for ease of use for all necessary calculations. Last, the pooled weighted average estimates were calculated for any combination of conditions that had at least two studies. We will also be creating error estimates and confidence intervals for all pooled estimates.

We also worked on problems using linear and angular velocity and how to do unit conversions and set up the problems. She did a great job figuring out how to set up the problems and figuring out appropriate units.
