<p>hey guys! i was wondering if anyone knows how this class is run. from what i know, half is online and half is in class once a week. what is involved in the web / class times and are tests during class or scheduled for another time since so many students have this class.</p>
<p>any info on the class structure or how it is run would be great ! :]</p>

<p>Monday Wednesday Friday - go to live lecture or watch the lecture online. About 45 Minutes. Fill in a workbook which doubles as your class notes as you attend to the lecture.</p>
<p>Assigned day of the week - go to a lab and complete an activity on statistics. Involves using a computer, sometimes calculator, and filling in a sheet of paper from the workbook mentioned. 50 minutes.</p>
<p>Thursday at Midnight: Deadline for the weekly quiz. typically only 6 questions or so on it. You have a lot of time and 3 chances to take these quizzes.</p>
<p>the first two exams are night exams. The third exam is scheduled in a finals slot during finals week but isnt a real final, ie not cumulative. each exam is about an hour and 20 minutes long.</p>
<p>Time conflicts with the exams are almost never an issue but are handled individually. The class is huge (like 1600-1800 students) but is divided up by section then sections are assigned classrooms to take the exam in.</p>
<p>Reading the text is optional and completing the assigned problems out of it is also optional. I <strong><em>HIGHLY</em></strong> DISCOURAGE you from buying the statistics textbook. just buy a workbook. There are copies of the text in marston if you really need to look at it you can borrow one there for 2 hours at a time as many times as you wish. The workbook used in this class was written by the same women who teach it and they literally fill it in in front of you in lecture. They DO NOT cover anything that is not in the workbook and if you truly do not understand the workbook after having properly filled it in then you should seek some kind of tutor because i would not imagine you would understand the book more easily; the notes are quite concise.</p>
