Time to Practice – Week Three

 

Complete both Part A and Part B below.

 

Part A

 

Some questions in Part A require that you access data from Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics.This data is available on the student website under the Student Test Resources link.

 

1.     For the following research questions, create one null hypothesis, one directional research hypothesis, and one nondirectional research hypothesis.

 

a.     What are the effects of attention on out-of-seat classroom behavior?

b.    What is the relationship between the quality of a marriage and the quality of the spouses’ relationships with their siblings?

c.     What is the best way to treat an eating disorder?

 

2.     Provide one research hypothesis and an equation for each of the following topics:

 

a.     The amount of money spent on food among undergraduate students and undergraduate student-athletes

b.    The average amount of time taken by white and brown rats to get out of a maze

c.     The effects of Drug A and Drug B on a disease

d.    The time to complete a task in Method 1 and Method 2

 

3.     Why does the null hypothesis presume no relationship between variables?

 

4.     Create a research hypothesis tested using a one-tailed test and a research hypothesis tested using a two-tailed test.

 

5.     What does the critical value represent?

 

6.     Given the following information, would your decision be to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Setting the level of significance at .05 for decision making, provide an explanation for your conclusion.

 

a.     The null hypothesis that there is no relationship between the type of music a person listens to and his crime rate (p < .05).

b.    The null hypothesis that there is no relationship between the amount of coffee consumption and GPA (p = .62).

c.     The null hypothesis that there is a negative relationship between the number of hours worked and level of job satisfaction (p = .51).

 

7.     Why is it harder to find a significant outcome (all other things being equal) when the research hypothesis is being tested at the .01 rather than the .05 level of significance?

 

8.     Why should we think in terms of “failing to reject” the null rather than just accepting it?

 

9.     When is it appropriate to use the one-sample z test?

 

10.  What similarity does a z test have to a simple z or standard score?

 

11.  For the following situations, write out a research hypothesis:

 

a.     Bob wants to know if the weight loss for his group on the chocolate-only diet is representative of weight loss in a large population of middle-aged men.

b.    The health department is charged with finding out if the rate of flu per thousand citizens for this past flu season is comparable to the average rate of the past 50 seasons.

c.     Blair is almost sure that his monthly costs for the past year are not representative of his average monthly costs over the past 20 years.

 

12.  There were about 15 flu cases per week, this flu season, in the Oshkosh school system. The weekly average for the entire state is 16 and the standard deviation, is 2.35. Are the kids in Oshkosh as sick as the kids throughout the state?

Part B

 

Complete the following questions. Be specific and provide examples when relevant.

You’ve won the business! Faster Computing has agreed to the project. As the final stage of pre-implementation, you have been asked to produce a training guide that will demonstrate how to install Linux and provide an overview of several common commands, as follows:

(11.1.3: Install the software.) 

• Use a hypervisor of your choice to install Linux. Many hypervisors are available, such as Oracle’s VirtualBox, which is a free download. In addition, as part of UMGC’s agreement with VMware, you can download VMware Workstation for free. See below for specific screenshot requirements. You should include at least 3 screenshots (e.g., disk partitioning, timezone selection, creating the default account). Each screenshot should be accompanied by a brief explanation of what you did.
  NOTE: It is not necessary to include screenshots of installing the hypervisor software.

(1.2.3: Explain specialized terms or concepts to facilitate audience comprehension.)

• Demonstrate command-line operations that will provide the following information:
  • A listing of files in a directory and common file attributes
  • The current directory (hint: also known as the present working directory)
  • Create a file, then copy it to a different directory
  • Create a second file and move it to a different directory
  • Remove the first file, as well as the copy you created
  • The manual page for a given command
  • Create a text file, then use an editor to modify the content. Then display the content of the modified file

(1.4.2: Use vocabulary appropriate for the discipline, genre, and intended audience.)

In the above section (demonstrate CLI operations) show the commands with options/arguments (e.g., ls, cp, mv, rm) in your documentation as well as in your screenshots. 

(11.2.1: Configure technology according to stakeholder specifications and requirements.)

• Show running processes on the system. Demonstrate how to search for a specific process
• Forcibly stop a running process

In the above section (demonstrate CLI operations) show the commands with options/arguments (e.g., top, kill, -9, ps) in your documentation as well as in your screenshots. 

(13.1.1: Create documentation appropriate to the stakeholder.)

The deliverable for the final phase of the project is a written paper with screenshots. There is no minimum or maximum page requirement, but all of the requirements must be met.  Use the Training Guide Template to record your work. This section will be graded upon the overall usefulness of the training guide to the organization.

(11.3.1: Add and update systems as required.) 

This portion of the training guide helps determine your submission is unique.

Important Requirement

On the final screenshot, you need to open a command line and type in the following commands (without the quotes):

“date”

“echo CMIT391”

“echo <your name here>” (Replace your name here with your name)

The recommended format is to provide screenshots incorporated within the written narrative. The screenshots must all be your own. Screenshots from external sources are not permitted. You must include the specific screenshot listed above or your project will not be accepted.

(1.1.4: Explain the relationship between the ideas presented to enhance clarity and comprehension.)

The training guide must have a cover page, an introduction, summary, and at least 3-5 references.

(1.2.2: Employ a format, style, and tone appropriate to the audience, context, and goal.)

Employ proper spelling and grammar. All Linux commands must be lower case.

(2.2.3: Explain the assumptions underlying viewpoints, solutions, or conclusions.)

In your conclusion of at least a paragraph, summarize why using Linux is beneficial for employees, management, and the organization as a whole.
