Math/Physic/Economic/Statistic Problems

The main objective of this assignment is to make recommendations to an external client based on inferential statistics performed on quantitative research data.

Begin by understanding the business problem in each scenario: What is the real issue? What kinds of data or information would make a contribution to this issue? Next, examine the data set and identify which of the techniques we have covered is most appropriate for analyzing this data set. You will need to correctly perform that analytical technique on the data set, together with the basic descriptive statistics required (this step should be very easy if you have followed the pre-work and in-class exercises). The most important part of your assignment will be deriving meaningful conclusions that are relevant to the business issue based on the results of your analysis, and making recommendations to a committee of senior managers using the template provided. The full business briefing and data sets will be provided in class.

You will be graded on your report, however it is a pre-requisite for this assignment that you submit both your own, original excel spreadsheet as well as your management report. Ensure that all submitted work is your own original work.

817 lesson 9 diss

Lesson 9 Discussion Forum
Question
In the mini-lecture for this topic, I asserted that in the cases of Iran, Iraq, and North Korea, the United States acquired vastly more information of greater value and granularity from international inspections than from its massive intelligence efforts against those countries suspected WMD programs.  If this is the case, why waste the resources on the intelligence effort – especially when it can so easily be abused as it was in Iraq?
Do an initial post on the question, “Why should the U.S. invest so much effort into intelligence gathering on foreign WMD programs?”

Quality Service

Define in your own words what you look for in a quality SERVICE experience. If your standards are different based upon the type of service, tell me what those differences are.

Describe a service that you have had that you think is a “quality service experience”.
Write a brief paragraph providing at least two reasons why you think this is was a quality service experience. Use your own standards of quality to describe what about the service provided to you makes you feel it is of quality. Be specific.

Click on the link corresponding to your statistical package to see instructions for completing the activity, and then answer the questions below.

Question 1: Report the correlation between gestation and longevity and comment on the strength and direction of the relationship. Interpret your findings in context.

Now return to the scatterplot that you created earlier. Notice that there is an outlier in both longevity (40 years) and gestation (645 days). Note: This outlier corresponds to the longevity and gestation period of the elephant.
What do you think will happen to the correlation if we remove this outlier?

Instructions
Click on the link corresponding to your statistical package to see instructions for completing the activity, and then answer the questions below.

Question 2:
Report the new value for the correlation between gestation and longevity and compare it to the value you found earlier when the outlier was included. What is it about this outlier that results in the fact that its inclusion in the data causes the correlation to increase? (Hint: look at the scatterplot.)

Comment
In the last activity, we saw an example where there was a positive linear relationship between the two variables, and including the outlier just “strengthened” it. Consider the hypothetical data displayed by the following scatterplot:

Modifying Lesson Plan

An essential part of being a special educator is writing and implementing IEPs and lesson plans associated with goals on IEPs. Due to legal requirements, special educators should understand the steps that go into planning effective lessons and appropriate accommodations for students with disabilities. Being able to translate IEP goals into learning objectives and accompanying lessons requires practice.

Review “Marcus Partial IEP and Lesson” to inform the assignment.

Upon reviewing the Present Level of Performance and the second grade literacy-based standards, create one academic goal specific to Marcus’ needs. Include this academic goal within the “Lesson Summary and Focus” section of the “COE Lesson Plan Template.”

Design a standards-based lesson plan, using the “COE Lesson Plan Template,” that modifies and extends skills taught in Marcus’ sample lesson plan and is aligned to his identified academic goal.

Write a 250-500 word rationale explaining your instructional choices, how your lesson extends the skills taught in the “Sample Lesson Plan” for Marcus, and how the lesson is appropriate for meeting Marcus’ academic goal. Discuss how elements of UDL will be incorporated to enhance Marcus’ learning.
