Doing a sampling of the demographics in college around the United States in 2009 it can be seen that 65% of the students are women and 45% are male. In Dr Zak’s test it was distributed as 70% female and 30% male. Of the distribution among races it was as follows: 65% White, 14% Black, 11% Hispanic, and .7% Asian. When looking at the test subjects for Dr Zak it is seen that 89% of the students were White, .04%
RE: Week five discussion question Scott Moehlmann 1/9/2012 7:19:30 PM To take this discussion post further I can calculate the mean, median, mode by gender. I had 18 people in my survey, nine women and nine men. The mean for the ages of the women can be calculated by adding the nine ages and then dividing by nine: 25+25+26+28+28+29+35+35+40=271. 271/9=30.1. This equates to the mean or average age of the females surveyed was 30.1 years old.
The studies done show relative wage displaying high school at the equivalent of zero and median, ninetieth, and tenth wage percentiles by years of education in 1973- 1975 and 2003-2005 (Lemieux, 2006, p. 196). Additionally, the medium represents the fiftieth percentile showing that education has become an integral part in determining wages over the course of time (Lemieux, 2006, p. 196). In comparison, Team B conducted studies of data provided with 100 student samples. The measures of central tendency and dispersion, which measure the mean, median, mode, range, variance, deviation and standard deviation where calculated to show relevance with the studies done by Lemieux. The descriptive statistics tables shown below serve as the starting point providing valuable information to reason out result.
The characteristics, its complex 3D plots and constrained equation have been explained in chapter 2. 5.2.1.1 Effect of population on convergence Table 5.1 shows the result of best fitness, worst fitness, mean and standard deviation (SD) for KHA, KHAMC and KHAMCD which are discussed in chapter 4. All the results obtained are for 30 dimensions. Taking the change in population size in steps of 50 from 50 to 150, all the three algorithms are tested on five unimodal benchmark functions. The best result of each parameter for each algorithm is shown bold in Table 5.1.
The third individual variable to be reviewed is Income. A histogram chart was created to determine of the fifty customers sampled how much income these individuals have coming in. By looking at the histogram one is able to determine that the majority of customers reported making approximately fifty five thousand a year therefore this would be the mode. The average or mean reported income was approximately forty four thousand a year. The median would be about forty three thousand a year.
The data was then obtained from a variety of studies and the results combined to make a total of 106 middle-class children that were observed. They found that 62% of the children shown secure attachment, insecure avoidant 15% and last of all insecure-resistant 9%. The 4 behavioural categories were: 1. Exploration behaviour 2. Separation anxiety 3.Reunion behaviour 4.Stranger Anxiety.
The number of undergraduates at Johns Hopkins University is about 2000, while the number at Ohio State is approximately 40,000. 17. Say the actual proportion of undergraduates at Johns Hopkins University who feel drinking is a problem among college students is 67%. A simple random sample of 50 undergraduates at Johns Hopkins University found that 60% of those sampled felt that drinking was a problem among college students. Which value(s) can be labeled as parameter(s)?
(Bradley et al, 2010) RTI traditionally utilizes a three tiered approach to intervening with students who are struggling learners; with each tier providing more intense and focused strategies. (Griffiths et al, 2007; Bradley et al, 2010). Utopia School uses a similar three tiered approach for classroom management and behavioral issues. Since poor classroom management often results in loss of instructional time, teachers need proven strategies and systems to benefit all their students. (Sayeski & Brown, 2011) Using the RTI model of a tiered approach to behavior management enables educators to address behavior issues at all levels: basic classroom management, students who need extra social skills or behavior modifications and students with extreme behavior issues.
The first question; have the actual items and questions (or at least a sample) been provided? The researchers Orathinkal et al., (2008) provided questions to the participants and note this with a statement that “participants prior to the study completed the EFI” (p.157). In addition they provided a sampling of the questions provided to the participants. One of questions is “forgiveness as part of martial life” (p. 157). The response was that “90% of total respondents either agree or strongly agree with this statement” (p. 157).
The total staff at Thunder Kat Elementary is 34. The teacher population resembles that of the student population in terms of ethnicity. Teachers at Longhorn Elementary are predominantly Hispanic. 94.9% of teachers are Hispanic and the remaining 5.1% of teachers are identified as White. The average years of experience of teachers
