About the Course

This course covers commonly used statistical inference methods for numerical and categorical data. You will learn how to set up and perform hypothesis tests, interpret p-values, and report the results of your analysis in a way that is interpretable for clients or the public. Using numerous data examples, you will learn to report estimates of quantities in a way that expresses the uncertainty of the quantity of interest. You will be guided through installing and using R and RStudio (free statistical software), and will use this software for lab exercises and a final project. The course introduces practical tools for performing data analysis and explores the fundamental concepts necessary to interpret and report results for both categorical and numerical data...

Great course. If you put in a little effort, you will come out with a lot of new knowledge. I recommend using the book after you have seen the movies. It gives a deeper picture of how it works. Great!

It is a great course, while some underlying logics are not clearly explained. And the quiz has some unexplained context, which is confused.

It was a very interesting and useful course. To improve it a little bit, I would focus more on the use of R to do different analysis.

I liked this course because it gives basic ideas how inferential statistics works, without going into mathematical details.

I thought this course did a great job of incorporating R code into the lecture and hope that continues in future courses.

Generally a great course, but would benefit from a better explanation at times of how to use R effectively.

Good videos, good book with exercises but many useful functions in R were not introduced (e.g. t.test()).

More detailed answers on Quiz questions and some more explanation on R codes will help a lot

good course overall. Would love to see more math exercises rather than wording of problems.

I think it is a little bit difficult for someone who knows nothing about probability or R.
