Stats: Data and Models

Rate this book
For courses in Introductory Statistics.
Encourages statistical thinking using technology, innovative methods, and a sense of humor Inspired by the 2016 GAISE Report revision, Stats: Data and Models, 5th Edition by De Veaux/Velleman/Bock uses innovative strategies to help students think critically about data -- while maintaining the book's core concepts, coverage, and most importantly, readability.
By using technology and simulations to demonstrate variability at critical points throughout the course, the authors make it easier for instructors to teach and for students to understand more complicated statistical concepts later in the course (such as the Central Limit Theorem). In addition, students get more exposure to large data sets and multivariate thinking, which better prepares them to be critical consumers of statistics in the 21st century. The 5th Edition's approach to teaching Stats: Data and Models is revolutionary, yet it retains the book's lively tone and hallmark pedagogical features such as its Think/Show/Tell Step-by-Step Examples.
Also available with MyLab Statistics MyLab(TM) Statistics is the teaching and learning platform that empowers instructors to reach every student. By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab Statistics personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student. With MyLab Statistics and StatCrunch, an integrated web-based statistical software program, students learn the skills they need to interact with data in the real world.

İstatistiki mantıksal ve eğlenceli öğretebilen bir kitap - Tüm üniversitelerde okutulmalı. Bunun yanısıra Charles Wheelan 'Naked Statistics ' kitabını da tavsiye ederim.

Unbelievable: a statistics textbook that successfully employs humor and makes the subject clear and enjoyable. Seriously. If you have to take a stats class, look for one that uses this book (Math 80 with Bill King at SF City College is one). This book really enhanced my understanding of the material, and the accompanying CD is unbelievably helpful.

Best. Stats textbook. EVAR.

Förklarade koncepten bra men var ibland lite väl pratig och rörig.
En styrka med den här boken jämfört med andra läroböcker om samma ämne är att den förklarar mer om teknikerna ska tillämpas och vanliga fallgropar att undvika. Förvånande många fel i facit till övningsuppgifterna.
