Required Textbook, Calculator, and Computer Software: ELEMENTARY STATISTICS Using the TI83/84 Plus Calculator (3rd Edition; copyright 2011): Mario F. Triola. You must have the MyLabsPlus access
code. This code comes in the bundled new books available at the CFCC bookstore. If you buy a used book or
use the textbook online, you will need to buy the access code separately. You may purchase the access code and
use the online textbook. (See Registering for MyLabsPlus information below in this document.) A TI-83 or TI84 Calculator is required. (A TI-82 is not sufficient.) The TI-83/TI-84 will be used in testing, and there is no
equivalent chart or calculator that will get you the correct answer on some test questions. At times, the computer
software, STATDISK, that comes with the textbook will be more appropriate to use.
Back to Top
Course Overview, Evaluation & Testing, Proctored Exam(s), Grading
Course Overview: The course is set up with scheduled assignments that must be completed by 11:59 p.m.
Eastern Time on the assignment due date or final date. Any work not completed on time will receive a grade of
zero. You may work ahead on homework, quiz, and test assignments, but you may NOT submit assignments
after the final date and time. See Online Assignments Schedule for Due Dates. Computer or technology
difficulties are not an accepted excuse for missing work. Each online assignment will be listed with an opening
and a closing date. You have unlimited and untimed attempts on each homework, two 120-minute attempts on
each quiz, and one 120-minute attempt on each test. Once you open a test or quiz, you must complete the test or
quiz in the allotted time as indicated for each. You will not be able to re-open tests or quizzes after you submit
them. Therefore, allow yourself the allotted time before starting a test or quiz. You will not be able to take extra
time on tests or quizzes unless you supply your instructor with official documentation from the Disabilities
Services Office at CFCC, prior to the due date. (See the section "MEDICAL NEEDS OF STUDENTS" below.)
TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES ARE NO EXCUSE FOR LATE OR MISSED WORK. You may use the
computers located in the Learning Lab of the CFCC Library if you are having problems with your computer,
BUT this is no substitute for your having a computer of your own available to do assignments. You are
expected to check your myCFCC Email and MyLabsPlus Announcements daily because that is how I will
communicate to you about the course. Back to Top
Evaluation & Testing: All homework, quiz, and test assignments are due no later than 11:59 p.m. on the
suggested date or due date. Learning can take place without testing; however, testing is a necessary
prerequisite to the fair issuance of grades for this course. Therefore, there will be 11 tests (15% of grade); 10
quizzes (15%); 15 homework (15%); proctored exam(s) (50%); and online participation (5%). Assignments
will not be accepted late! If you miss an assignment, you will receive a zero. You may work ahead of the
assigned due dates for some of the online assignments. The proctored exam(s) may contain materials discussed
in posted notes or assigned online or listed on the Course Content.
Back to Top
Proctored Exam: There will be two proctored exams. Exam 1 will cover Chapter 1 – 3. Exam 2 will cover
Chapter 4 – 8. These exams will be administered at the Cape Fear CC downtown campus on Sep 15 from 3-5 PM
and on November 12 from 3-5 PM in S617. (I will supply more information later.) Any student who does not
take the proctored exam(s) will receive a score of zero. The exam(s) will be paper and pencil type, and you will be
required to show a picture ID to take the exam(s). If you cannot take the exam(s) during the scheduled time at the
Cape Fear CC downtown campus, you will be required to secure a proctor off campus. For Exam 1, you must submit
the appropriate information by 11:30 a.m. on September 4, 2014. For Exam 2, you must submit the appropriate
information by 11:30 AM on October 30, 2014. The application form is available as a printable document at
http://cfcc.edu/faculty/cmoore/ProctoredTestingForm_Printable.doc or PDF. If your site and proctor have not
been approved by September 10 (for Exam 1) or November 7 (for Exam 2), you will be required to come to
CFCC during the scheduled time to take the exam(s). Failure to take the proctored exam as described above will

result in score of zero. Bring your photo ID (to CFCC or to a proctor), two pencils, the pullout sheet of formulas
from the book, and your calculator. NO BOOK.
Back to Top
Grading: The homework, quiz, and test assignments will be administered via the Internet using
MyLabsPlus. See the section Proctored Exam(s) information concerning the proctored exam(s). Participation
will consist of participation assignments as described in MyLab and/or communications by the instructor such
as email. The lowest homework score, the lowest quiz score, and the lowest test score will be dropped. The
remaining 14 homework, 9 quiz, and 10 test assignments, proctored exam(s), and participation assignments will
count toward your final grade as indicated below.
Each Category Counts x % of Grade
Homework (H) 15%
Quiz (Q) 15%; Test (T) 15%
Proctored Exam(s) (E) 50%
Participation (P) 5%
Overall average = 0.15*H + 0.15*Q + 0.15*T + 0.5*E + 0.05*P
Your course grade is based on your overall average as follows:
92 to 100 = A
84 to 91 = B 76 to 83 = C 68 to 75 = D 0 to 67 = F Back to Top
Required Chapters, Notes and Worked Exercises, & Suggested Timetable
Required Chapters: This course will cover all materials in the following chapters unless otherwise indicated in
Announcements or other Communications to students from the instructor. (See Timetable for Chapters below
for more detailed information.)

Explanation of “Suggested Date” and “Due Date”: Pages 8 and 9 contain Online Assignments and Due
Dates. There is a column for Suggested Date and a column for required Due Date for the various assignments
in MyLab and the Proctored Exam(s). The Suggested Date column lists suggested dates by which the
assignments should be completed in order to complete the course within the scheduled time frame. The Due
Date column lists dates that the assignments must be completed in order to receive credit for the assignment(s).
The assignments will NOT be available to you (students) after the Due Date listed. You may review the
assignments after you complete and submit them. You can NOT change the scores after the Due Date. Each
homework has unlimited attempts and unlimited time. You may review and/or rework the homework at any
time before the final due date. Each quiz has two attempts and 120-minute time limit. Each test has one
attempt and 120-minute time limit. Those assignments that have a limited number of attempts will NOT be
available to change the score after you use the number of attempts indicated. After you attempt a quiz a second
time, that quiz will be available for review; however, you will NOT be able to change your score. After you
attempt a test the first time, that test will be available for review; however, you will NOT be able to change your
score.

Religious Observances: Students will be allowed two days of excused absence each academic year for
religious observances required by the faith of the student. These excused absences will be included in the
twenty (20%) percent of allowable clock hour absences. Students are required to provide written notice of the
request for an excused absence by completing the Religious Observance Absence form available in Student
Development. The completed form must be submitted to the Vice President of Student Development or his/her
designee a minimum of ten (10) school days prior to the religious observance. The Vice President of Student
Development or his/her designee will notify the instructor within three (3) school days of receiving the request.
Students will be given the opportunity to make up any tests or other work missed due to the excused absence
and should work with their instructors in advance of the excused absence to delineate how to make up the
missed coursework. Back to Top
ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS: You must complete 70% of the course assignments (HW, labs, & tests) and take
the proctored final exam to receive credit for this course. Anything less will result in a grade of F. In other words, if you
miss more than 30% of the assignments you will receive an F for the course. If you miss any graded assignment,
including proctored exam(s), you will get a zero for the assignment. There are no makeup dates for missed
assignments. See the Online Assignments Schedule for the due dates.

Technical Information and Support
Information: If you experience any technical difficulties, please compare with the following and use the
suggestions given below.
1. You need to download all plug-ins and players from the MyLabsPlus Browser Check.
2. Some internet services (such as AOL and CompuServe) provide their own browsers, which do not
work reliably with your online course. It is best to connect to the Internet as you normally would,

to access your course in MyLab (Course Compass).
3. I'm having problems logging on. Are you using your correct username and password?
4. I cannot view the homework. Did you download the plug-ins? If not, run the Browser Check listed in
Announcements of the Course Home section. You should download all the plug-ins listed there (Adobe
Flash Player, Adobe Reader, and Java Runtime Environment). There may be other plug-ins needed.
5. When viewing some homework, I cannot scroll down the screen. Did you set the resolution on your
computer to 1024 x 768? To check or change the resolution, click on the "start" button, Control Panel,
Appearance, Display, and Adjust resolution.
