Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course deals with the organization, analysis, interpretation and presentation of data. It gives an overview of basic statistic techniques, which will be practised in course. The focus in terms of software is on SPSS, however, other programs will be mentioned. The course shall lead to a better understanding which methods and visual displays should be used when (and why). The analyses can be applied and interpreted correctly.

Assessment and permitted materials

Requirements for the course: regular attendance + oral (discussions, answering questions in class) + short written homework + longer homeworks+practical final test. Material allowed: Homework (all, open book), final test (none; open book only of digital mode becomes necessary).
To safeguard good academic practice, the lecturer may ask students to reflect on their written assignements in a conversation. Students must successfully pass this reflection. If good scientific practice is violated in any assessment, you will fail to pass the course.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

It is necessary to have at least 51 points (out of 100) to pass the course: participation and practice 10 points, longer home work (40 points, two-times 20), practical final test 50 points. Grade 1: 87 – 100 points, Grade 2: 75 – 86,99 points, Grade 3: 63 – 74,99 points, Grade 4: 51 – 62,99 points, Grade 5: < 51 points.
Attendance compulsory (at least 80% required to pass the course).

Examination topics

Short lectures will give an overview. There will software demonstrations. Examples will be discussed with the students and practiced in hands-on training. There will be small written homework to be completed within the following week. Results and questions will then be discussed in class. Moreover, there will be two extended tasks und a final test.

Reading list

Further material will be provided via handouts and the learning platform Moodle.
