Next year there will be an addition to the class courses that students are able to take. A new math related class will be available to students and it is called Statistics. This class will be taught by Mr. Drake Zortman, math teacher. According to Mr. Zortman, This class will open the eyes of students to “use statistics in an assortment of ways to accentuate their work in all their other courses”. Statistics class is a study of data, both in numeric and graphic form.
Mr. Zortman was encouraged to teach this class because he has had an extensive amount of experience in teaching statistics courses. He said, “I believe we see and hear statistics everyday. I think it is essential that we are able to understand these and utilize them for many purposes. My experience includes introduction to Statistics, AP Statistics, and Analysis”. Learning something new every day will not hurt anybody. So why not try out this new course?
Looking at two variable statistics, the normal distribution, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing are just a few things that will be discussed in this class. So students, get ready to be challenged and to learn about the different statistics around you! Run to guidance and apply for this course now before the spaces are filled!
