I would recommend that you thoroughly read each chapter and take notes before attempting the problem sets or mystatlab assignments. In addition, make sure to do the problem sets over before each exam and the study guide. The tests are harder than the problem sets!

I highly recommend that you take advantage of office hours if you are struggling. Also do the homework!

It would be better for you try to make time spending time for this course, and you won't be lost in this class. :)

Take notes when you read the chapters, and take notes when you get a problem wrong. Redo the problem and get it right. Learn the material instead of just passing the class.

Don't try to struggle through the homework and prepare for the tests with minimal understanding! Reading the chapters does help a lot with the quizzes and the problem sets as well.

NG]]> 2016-12-06 20:21:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142150104 Advice for Math 10 online This class has a well organized schedule so it is easier to plan your time but still make it a habit to check the web portal every few days. • If you can’t understand something it can be difficult to describe your problem, so if you can’t make it to office hours, take a screen shot of the problem you are having difficulty with,( use the Snipping Tool in windows) and email it with your issue to the lecturer. • If you are good with Excel, use it to create a template for some of the formulas; it will help you exercise the brain and you can use the "PrtScr" key on your keyboard or "Snip It" app to capture screen shots from the online book to add to your notes. • Remember notes are “brain fitness”; if you want to be in shape exercise, exercise, exercise. https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142150343 AMG

Prioritize your schedule and do not think because this is an online class that you can slack off. Be prepared for each chapter and make sure you allocate enough time to focus on each, this will surely help you on all tests in the future.

This module is very organized and it helps you study efficiently.  When you read test book first time, you may not understand all of them,   but Chapter note explain the concept explicitly. After going through the Chapter note, you should revisit sample problems you couldn't understand first time. Video made by Mrs. Wong is very useful, especially if you want to learn how to use calculator/StatCrunch.

Also, I would pay more attention to the teachers' notes, rather than the textbook. I find that it's condensed, and straight to the point of what's on the test. My 2 cents. 

Jade M]]> 2016-12-07 18:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142385833 Advice https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142711359 Reading the textbook takes time but one can certainly benefit from this and gain the fundamental understanding of every chapter. At the first few easier chapters, it may not seem necessary but it will pave the way to high competency later on and success in more advanced classes if research is your interests.
Since most of us don't get the chance to practice and utilize the knowledge on a daily basis, it is very likely after a couple of weeks, what we learn at the beginning of a module will start getting fuzzy. So to ensure a firm grasp of the material, it is very useful, at least from my personal experience to review the notes, test reviews and problem sets before a major exam. The test reviews are of great importance in terms of preparing for exams.
I also take note while studying and try to explain to myself how different methods are linked with each other and their own limitations. The greatest challenge of the course is probably confidence interval and hypothesis testing. The two methods share some features in common in terms of capabilities and concepts but tackles questions from almost opposite starting points. It will take some time to be comfortable with the two approaches. But power through it because this is almost at the other end of the tunnel:)

HJH]]> 2016-12-09 01:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142711359 Do the test practice if you want to do well on the test. The textbook has icons you can click on that bring you to animations, practice problems, etc. so you can get some extra practice while you read. I didn't find that out until the last couple weeks. https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142929811 KO]]> 2016-12-10 03:33:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142929811 Advice: Don't wait until the weekend to do all the work. I found that if I work during the day, I'm not going to want to study as much at night, especially if I get tired. But, it's better to do the work over the course of a few days rather than waiting last minute to get it all done. Also, if you just read the Chapter notes, you probably won't need the e-text, honestly. I barely used it because the notes were sufficient, especially with all the examples thrown in. And StatCrunch seems to be easier to use than a TI calculator. Just my opinion though. https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142964724
Amy G]]> 2016-12-10 21:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/142964724 To prepare for the tests, do re-examine the chapter notes posted online and do as many examples as you can to familiarize yourself with the questions that will appear on the test. The test reviews are also quite similar in format to the tests so they are a good way to acquaint yourself with the exam's format and content. Re-doing the My Stat Labs questions that you may not have gotten entirely correct is a good way to get full credit for those problems, identify your weaknesses, and correct them with practice. https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/143027570

Also, the study guide you will receive online will be the most helpful thing to use to prepare for upcoming tests along with the notes she gives out in the modules. 
CK]]> 2016-12-12 02:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/143032560 Advice https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/143035339 Definitely start the homework early. Some homework assignments can be done within 20 minutes, but other assignments will take over a few hours. I would also take full advantage of reaching out to professor wong if you have any questions because she is very quick at responding! When stuck on the homework, check out the "view an example" button. That was extremely helpful when I could not figure out what I was doing wrong.

Because it is an online course, it's easy to procrastinate your studying until the last minute. Making a study plan can really help avoid stress. Also, the chapter notes are so important and such a great resource! Read them! They make everything so much easier to understand.

Both help put emphasis on information that are important and vital in successfully passing this course.  I highly suggest doing the homework at the beginning of the week to get it out of the way, that way you can spend the rest of the week studying. StatCrunch is a must learn online math tool! It is much easier than using a TI-84.

Make sure you go over the chapter notes and review problems. Also take the practice test without using the textbook. Lastly make sure to take advantage of the cheat sheet. https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/143056840 -OA]]> 2016-12-12 08:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/rkwongedd/7w479jkconrh/wish/143056840
