Steve Koch 11:17, 4 October 2010 (EDT): In 2010, we had an impromptu discussion about how to report mean +/- standard error of the mean, and relation to the central limit theorem.
2011 Coin Toss Results
2009 Agenda for Lecture
- Discussion about labs; /Good lab notebooks;
- How to report uncertainty
- Make sure to always include units and uncertainty.
- Probability density function
- Histogram
- Central Limit Theorem
- Normal Distribution
- Possibly: How to graph results w/ theory
- Possibly: sensitivity for uncertainty propagation
Agenda for Labs
- Today you definitely need to talk with Koch about what needs to be included in your lab summary.
- Must finish taking data this week. Summary should be completed outside of class.
Must complete your hands-on "quiz" or interview with Koch.The in-class "quiz" is actually on-going...but you can request one at the end if you think I may have a bad impression of your understanding.
