2. Goals, objectives and learning outcomes of the course
This course covers the fundamental statistical concepts and is
Course
related to the computer science engineering. Topics include:
description
descriptive statistics; probability and random variables;
sampling; statistical distributions; confidence intervals;
hypothesis testing; regression.
Course
goal(s)
Course
objectives:
Introduce students to the theory of probability, including
applications to practical examples;
To develop the students' knowledge and understanding of
statistics.
Course objectives are to teach students how to use statistical
techniques in decision making; to draw correct inferences from
sample data; to formulate appropriate statistical hypotheses;
and to correctly interpret statistical statements. Logical thought
processes are more critical than the ability to manipulate
complex mathematical formulae.

Course
Learning
Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to:
Construct and interpret graphical displays for simple data sets, calculate and
interpret measures for the centre and spread of data;
Compute the probability of various events; describe the concepts of
mutually exclusive events, conditional probability, dependent and
independent events, and Bayes theorem;
Discuss the concepts of random variables, probability distributions,
expected value and variance and identify their use in developing statistical
inference tools;
Describe the concept of a sampling distribution and its use in conducting
statistical inference for population parameters;
Calculate and interpret confidence intervals and hypothesis tests involving
population means, proportions and variance.
Conduct hypothesis testing, including a Chi-Square test of independence,
the concept of P-values in hypothesis testing.
To demonstrate the proper uses of statistical thinking and the role statistics
plays in science.

Methods of
Assessment
The expected learning outcomes for the course will be assessed through graded
activities and ungraded activities.
The graded activities include exams, homework assignments, and quizzes.
The ungraded activities will include a monitoring of attendance and class participation.
A variety of ungraded assessment techniques may be employed, that include problems
to be completed during class, direct questioning of students, answering student’s
questions in class, and discussions during office hours.
