Fundamentals of Statistics
with Peg Junge, Five Town CSD Adult & Community Education
This course (approximately 10 classes) is designed to prepare students for an introductory statistics course. College statistics is often difficult for students because the subject matter is unlike mathematics encountered in high school. The goal of this class is to provide the necessary foundational concepts for success at the college level. We begin by reviewing basic decimal and percents skills. Subsequent topics include data collecting considerations, organizing data and representing it visually, comparing data in terms of range, mean, variance, and standard deviation, and basic probability topics. Instruction can be provided in-person or on Zoom.

Getting News & Information Online

In this class, we will look at ways to determine "real" news from "fake" news and then discover how to find the news and information you want using Blogs, Podcasts, online publications and much more. No devices are required; just bring yourself.
We are currently identifying dates and times for these classes. Feel free to ‘register’ for classes that interest you and we will let you know when the dates are available so you can decide if the dates, times and locations will work for you and register officially.
