Course Syllabus

Abstract

Within the course Statistics I, types and properties of distributions of variables are discussed as well as general rules for testing statistical hypotheses, methods of descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, linear and logistic regression analysis, factorial and cluster analysis and latent classes are studied. The work takes place in the R program. In this course students will learn how to set research goals and choose appropriate statistical methods for the analysis, implement and interpret quantitative data analysis results, use statistical packages and work with open datasets. Besides, student will become familiar with current research studies in education and its methodology
