The class project begins on Thursday
this week. Instead of a 100 point
project, I am reducing it to 60 points, and as a result, it will be
smaller. It will focus on multiple regression
and what we do this week from Monday-Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday we will meet in the lab so you can use Minitab. You will have the full class period on Monday
as well. The project will be due Tuesday
morning at the beginning of class. Late
projects will have a penalty. That means
5 minutes after class begins is late! You
will work in teams of 3 or 4, and you will submit one paper per team. Requirements for the paper will be handed out
on Wednesday. If you go to Minitab.com,
you can find out how to download a full version of Minitab for your personal
computer on a 30-day trial basis----no charge.
The worksheet describing the project is listed after the material for
Chapters 4 and 5. The Minitab worksheet
containing the data is immediately below the project worksheet.
