Abstract 520    $aShows how to apply statistical reasoning to real-world problems. This isn't simply memorizing formulas or using the tools in a spreadsheet: he emphasizes the importance of clarifying questions, assumptions, and expectations, and- more importantly- knowing how to responsibly interpret the results the software generates.
