As we complete the first quarter of our semester, faculty have heard from both new and returning students that they are experiencing challenges with learning in the classroom. They are struggling with test taking, concentration, and other stresses in and out of the classroom. When you register, please share what atypical or different student learning experiences you are encountering this fall. We’ll use that data to plan a session. The first hour of the session will be about targeted strategies and the last 20-30 minutes will be small group discussions of how best to put the strategies into motion.

Participants will have the opportunity to practice their skills on real data output from R and SPSS. Emphasis will be on identifying the correct type of test given an independent and dependent variable and the interpretations of the outcomes.
