Homework And Problem Solving Practice Workbook Answers Grade 6 WORK



The purpose of written homework assignments is to get you thinkingabout the topics being covered in lecture and in readings in thetextbook which are not represented in the hands-on, programming labassignments. These written assignments also better prepare you forexams. It is worth noting that the book contains manypractice problems similar to the problems we ask on these writtenassignments! The solutions for those practice problems are located atthe end of each chapter and should give you a feel for the kind ofanswers we expect you to turn in for these kind of assignments.




Homework And Problem Solving Practice Workbook Answers Grade 6



To understand statistics, you must use statistics. Each week you will be required to complete assignments that will include a variety ofactivities ranging from statistical theory problems to analyzing data and interpretingstatistical results. Part of each assignment is explaining concepts and results to a lay audience. Generally, weekly assignments will be posted on Learning Suite after class on Thursday. (We will record scores on assignments, pre-class quizzes, and exams in Learning Suite as well.)You may work together on these assignments in groups of two or at most three, but you must write up your answers separately. (Three means you and two other students.) The reason I limit group size is that students have a greater opportunity to learn and understand the material when they work in smaller groups. (Conversely, it is easier to mistakenly think you know the materialwhen you work in larger groups.)I give much more detailed instructionson how to report your work together in the Academic Honesty section below.Generally, if you use other persons' work, or make changes to your own work without inquiring or understanding what you did incorrectly, then you are trying to get a grade using someone else's knowledge. Giving or receiving answers in this manner is not permitted in this course. If you do not learn how to analyze or solve problems on your own, you will have difficulty on the exams. As a regular practice, on each problem, state with whomyou worked. If you worked alone, state that you worked alone.


A colleague (Mitch Sanders, former professor at Notre Dame) has already explicated these issues specifically for political science. Please read here.In this class, you need to acknowledge the contributions of others toward yourassignments. I have taken the following guidelines from MIT's UnifiedEngineering class.I have changed and added various words where appropriate:"The fundamental principle of academic integrity is that you must fairly represent the source of the intellectual content of the work you submit for credit. In the context of [Poli 328], this means that if you consult other sources (such as fellow students, TA's, faculty, literature) in the process of completing homework [(or Stata codes)], you must acknowledge the sources in any way that reflects true ownership of the ideas and methods you used." "Doing homework helps to engage with the concepts and material taught in class on a deeper level. To enhance the learning process we strongly suggest that you first try to solve the problems by yourself and then discuss challenges in groups or in office hours if necessary. Discussion among students and in office hours to digest the material and the homework problems or to prepare for [exams] is considered useful in the educational process. COLLABORATION ON HOMEWORK IS ALLOWED UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED AS LONG AS ALL REFERENCES (BOTH LITERATURE AND PEOPLE) USED ARE NAMED CLEARLY AT THE END OF THE ASSIGNMENT. Word-by-word copies of someone else's solution or parts of a solution handed in for credit will be considered cheating unless there is a reference to the source for any part of the work which was copied verbatim. FAILURE TO CITE OTHER STUDENT'S CONTRIBUTION TO YOUR HOMEWORK SOLUTION WILL BE CONSIDERED CHEATING." "Study Group Guidelines" "Study groups are considered an educationally beneficial activity. However, at the end of each problem on which you collaborated with other students you must cite the students and the interaction. The purpose of this is to acknowledge their contribution to your work. Some examples follow: You discuss concepts, approaches and methods that could be applied to a homework problem before either of you start your written solution. This process is encouraged. You are not required to make a written acknowledgment of this type of interaction. After working on a problem independently, you compare answers with another student, which confirms your solution. You must acknowledgethat the other student's solution was used to check your own. No credit will be lost due to this comparison if the acknowledgment is made.After working on a problem independently, you compare answers with another student, which alerts you to an error in your own work. You must state at the end of the problem that you corrected your error on the basis of checking answers with the other student. No credit will be lost due to this comparison if the acknowledgment is made, and no direct copying of the correct solution is involved. You and another student work through a problem together, exchanging ideas as the solution progresses. Each of you must state at the end of the problem that you worked jointly. No credit will be lost due to this cooperation if the acknowledgment is made. [You must still write up yoursolutions individually, not jointly.]You copy all or part of a solution from a reference such as a textbook. You must cite the reference. Partial credit will be given, since there is some educational value in reading and understanding the solution. However, this practice is strongly discouraged, and should be used only when you are unable to solve the problem without assistance. You copy verbatim all or part of a solution from another student. This process is not considered academically dishonest if the acknowledgement is made. However, you will receive no credit for verbatim copying from another student as you have not made any intellectual contribution to the work you are both submitting for credit. VERBATIM COPYING OF ANY MATERIAL WHICH YOU SUBMIT FOR CREDIT WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE SOURCE IS CONSIDERED TO BE ACADEMICALLY DISHONEST."Unfortunately, some students still profess ignorance of or attempt to find loopholes in the previous guidelines. As a result ofsad experience, I repeat the following guidelines and add clarifications:You may work together on the weekly assignments in groups of two or at most three, but you must write up your answers separately. (Three means you and two other students.) Starting with a group document and then giving copies of that document to members of the group is not writing up answers separately, even if individuals make various changes to the original document. You muststart with separate, individual answers.If you find yourself emailing or copying files having to dowith weekly assignments, you are violating this policy. If a group isworking on a single computer to conduct analyses, which are then recorded and shared, then the group is violating this policy. If you work together on onecomputer, then you need to wait until you have separate computers to write up youranswers. The first time Isee group work turned in as individual work (even with "worked with" citations), I willtake the number of points earned and divide it by the number of people in the group. The next time, the penalty will be -100% (note: not 0, but -100%). You will not be able to drop any scores where a plagiarism penalty is applied.The weekly assignments and take-home exams are "open book" and "open notes." However, you may not make use of answer keys or graded assignments provided by students from previous years for either homeworks or in-class assignments. There is a "student solutions manuals" for Stock and Watson that has answersto odd-numbered exercises. You may use it provided you followthe citation guidelines discussed above (for which you only get partial credit). As with mosttextbooks, there is an "instructor solutions manual." (It has answers to all problems.) You may not use this. Like most things, you can find a copy of it on the internet, perhaps by sending money by PayPal to something equivalent to an essay mill, or downloading from some BitTorrent site, etc. If you find yourself searching for something like "Stock and Watson instructor solution manual," then you are well on your way to violating the Honor Code. If you have used this, I will refer you to the Honor Code Office.A good shorthand for violating the Honor Code is knowing something is wrong and doingit anyway. Anytime I find a student attempting to deceive me in any way, I will refer thatstudent to the Honor Code Office.If you have any questions about these guidelines, please ask me. Do not attempt toexploit loopholes.I have placed an examples of how to write up homework, including examples of citingwork with others, on Learning Suite here (blank example) and here (filled-in examples).


There is a worksheet that corresponds to each section covered in the textbook. You can access them under the outline tab above. Each worksheet lists the sections objectives, has a few practice problems and has suggested textbook problems. These practice problems are meant to prepare you for the quizzes and exams. Worksheets do not need to be turned in and solutions will be posted. It is recommended that you complete the worksheets before the quizzes each week. If you get stuck, review your class notes and the textbook and/or go to office hours. Once you are confident in your solutions, compare your answers to the posted solutions. Reading solutions as an alternative to doing the problems on your own is NOT a good strategy. 350c69d7ab
