Basic Introductory Statistics - Distance Calculus Course Information
Basic Statistics course can best be described as a "first course of an introduction to basic statistics (without calculus)".This course has many names, all being equivalent:
- Introductory Statistics
- General Statistics
- Basic Statistics
- General Education Statistics
Our Basic Statistics course differs from a classroom/textbook-based course in that we employ Mastery Learning so that you complete all assignments at 100% to assure competancy, as well as our curriculum shifting the course to a laboratory-style course, where theorem/lemma/proof type exposition is replaced by running experiments in Mathematica as you would in a science laboratory to empirically deduce the concepts and behaviors of basic statistics, both solvable (classically) via hand-based techiques, as well as studying basic statistics and probability that can only be solved and investigated graphically and numerically using a computer. The Basic Statistics curriculum is highly visual and based upon observations of experiments run in LiveMath.
At Distance Calculus, we call our "Basic Statistics" course as Basic Statistics - DMAT 125 - 4 credits.

Courses Completed: Calculus I, Calculus II
Review: Awesome classes! I was really weak with Calculus, so I retook Calc 1 and kept going into Calc 2. I feel like I finally understood Calculus. The finals were pretty thorough, but not nearly as stressful as the blue book exams. I highly recommend these courses!

Review: I took the Business Calculus course from Distance Calculus in 2013. I was admitted to my MBA program, but then they told me I needed to take Calculus before starting the program. I finished the Business Calculus course in about 3 weeks in August before my program started. Not the most fun thing to do over the summer, but at least I got it done. Thanks Diane and Distance Calculus team!

Review: This was the best class! So much more interesting doing the computer math than a boring lecture class. Diane was so responsive and helpful. I recommend this course.
