Stat 250: Introduction to Biostatistics - “This course will cover statistical analysis and interpretation of data in the
biological sciences; probability; distributions and statistical inference for one- and two-sample problems.” 3
credits
Prerequisite: 3 credits in mathematics
Goals - Data beat anecdotes
Variability is natural, predictable and quantifiable
Random Sampling allows results of surveys and experiments to be extended to the population from which
the sample was taken
Association is not causation
Statistical significance does not necessarily imply practical importance, especially for studies with large
sample sizes
Finding no statistically significant difference or relationship does not necessarily mean there is no
difference or no relationship in the population, especially for studies with small sample sizes
Common sources of bias in surveys and experiments
How to determine the population to which the results of statistical inference can be extended, if any,
based on how the data were collected
That words such as "normal, "random," and "correlation" have specific meanings in statistics that may
differ from common usage
How to graph the data as a first step in analyzing data, and how to know when that's enough to answer
the question of interest
How to interpret numerical summaries and graphical displays of data - both to answer questions and to
check conditions (to use statistical procedures correctly)
How to make appropriate use of statistical inference
How to communicate the results of a statistical analysis
The concept of a sampling distribution and how it applies to making statistical inferences based on
samples of data (including the idea of standard error)
The concept of statistical significance, including significance levels and p-values
The concept of confidence interval, including the interpretation of confidence level and margin of error
How to interpret statistical results in context
How to critique news stories and journal article that include statistical information, including identifying
what's missing in the presentation and the flaws in the studies or methods used to generate the
information
Objectives - In this course you will gain problem solving skills that will allow you to decide for yourself if research
involving data is trustworthy or not. Mathematical calculations are necessary but more important is interpreting
the values computed. At the end of the semester you will be able to organize data using numerical and graphical
summaries, apply properties to data based on the distribution that it follows, make calculations that prove or
disprove a hypothesis, interpret the trend in new data compared to a previous standard, diagnose the
trustworthiness of inference, collect data without bias and diagnose bias in collected data.
Overview – Our class will follow a flipped classroom model where you view lecture videos outside of class and
then come to class prepared to delve deeper into the material. Lecture classes will have all sections combined
into one; in most lecture classes you will see examples done by the instructor and then work on problem solving
in groups of students with an in-class assignment due before class ends. Lab classes will be individual sections run
by a TA (teaching assistant) and LA (learning assistant – computer expert) where you work on problem solving in
groups of students with an in-class quiz due before class ends that day. The calendar below illustrates what will
be covered each day in class.

Course website: cms.psu.edu (ANGEL) contains all course materials including the syllabus, grade book,
study guides and practice quizzes, lecture videos and notes, lab directions, data, and
quizzes, exams to review, and all course announcements (Q&A Board). It is your
responsibility to check the Q&A Board for all announcements related to class prior to class
each day
Course format: Watch each lecture video in the lecture video quizzes and complete the quiz before the
lecture class in which we start to discuss that material, taking detailed notes (done
outside of the classroom)
Bring your notes and any tables from the textbook to class to ask questions and practice
what you have learned
Complete all in-class assignments
Complete all exams (done outside of the classroom)
Course agreement / policies: By maintaining your enrollment in this class, you agree to
1. The Penn State Principles (http://www.psu.edu/ur/pdf/principles.pdf)
2. View this class as a resident course, not an online course – attend class regularly. Any
prolonged lapse in class attendance may result in no opportunity for makeup work or any
other adjustments
3. Check grades (posted weekly unless otherwise announced) and report errors in person
to the instructor within one week of their posting. Failure to do so will result in no
adjustment for any reason. Ignore the percentages ANGEL computes – they do not make
sense with our points
4. Request no extra credit beyond what is already provided
5. Use technology (computer, tablet, cell phone, etc) during class only for class purposes.
Non-class related activities may result in the confiscation of such devices for the duration
of class
6. Discuss due date / time conflicts in person, by phone, or two-way conversation in
ANGEL Communicate (you send the email, you receive a reply and you read it) with the
instructor before the due date / time and provide necessary documentation. After any
due date / time expires, there is no option for any adjustments for any reason. Work sent
to your instructor in email will not be graded
7. University approved conflicts are the only reason for due date / time conflicts (family
obligations, interviews, religious observances, University sports activities, etc) and they
must have documentation. Conflicts due to illness will only be considered prior to the
due date / time on an individual basis with extended illnesses requiring documentation
and illnesses that cause exam reschedules possibly requiring documentation
8. Use ANGEL with an acceptable browser and internet connection. Completing work off
campus is at your own risk – immediately contact ANGEL Support
(http://kb.its.psu.edu/cms/article/191) and your instructor by phone if any submissions
fail.
9. Check ANGEL’s Q&A Board for all course announcements prior to each class period.
Post non-emergency questions about the course policies or content on the Q&A Board
and respond to student questions if you know the answer
10. Send email to your instructor about private matters (general course questions go on
the Q&A Board) only through ANGEL Communicate
(http://kb.its.psu.edu/cms/article/383) and use proper email etiquette
(http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/694/1). Messages sent to the Instructor’s
webmail address will not be answered (University “best practice” – keep it all in ANGEL)
11. Come to class prepared to demonstrate what you learned in the lecture videos, ask
questions, work with classmates on everything but exams. Communicating in any way
(talking, txting, writing notes, etc) with other students during exams is not permitted
12. Take responsibility for your actions and your grades; seek help from office hours as
soon as you need it; do not share posted solutions or quiz solutions with other students;
do not share calculators or scrap paper during exams
13. Complete assignments in a timely manner; schedule exams at the Testing Center in a
timely manner; show up for class on time. Those entering the lecture classroom late will
not be able to participate in the in-class activity
14. Follow all rules and policies here, at the Testing Center
(http://testing.psu.edu/Students/), and of the University in our class and in every
classroom on campus (no food or drink)
The instructor and TA agree to
1. Cancel class only in the event that both parties have an emergency and post an
announcement on the ANGEL Q&A Board prior to the start of that class time
2. Answer student questions without giving away answers
a. To the best of their ability based on the information provided at that time
(student’s failure to provide all the information may result in the
miscommunication of ideas)
b. always when asked in class, having the proper preparation done before class
starts
c. within 24 hours if posted on ANGEL’s Q&A Board or Communicate Monday –
Friday between 8am and 4pm
d. within 48 hours if posted on ANGEL’s Q&A Board or Communicate evenings
and weekends
3. Grade assignments within one week of the due date / time. Exceptions will be posted
on the Q&A Board. All quizzes on ANGEL will be open for full review after the due time
4. Treat all students equally, making exceptions for no one to avoid partiality and bias
LAs agree to answer student questions about Minitab (not course content)
1. To the best of their ability based on the information provided at that time (student’s
failure to provide all the information may result in the miscommunication of ideas)
2. always when asked in class, having the proper preparation done before class starts
You are expected to complete all your own work in a collaborative setting for all assignments except exams. As a
reminder, the University has a policy on academic honesty. Cheating includes letting other students copy your
answers, submitting a quiz early and sharing the given answers with other students who have yet to submit their
work, sharing calculators, communicating with other students in any way during an exam, or using provided
solutions to check your answers before turning in your work. You are expected to abide by the procedures set
forth in the University’s document at http://www.psu.edu/dept/ufs/policies/47-00.html#49-20 . First failure to
comply will result in a grade of 0 on the assignment, the second will result in a F for the course.
Penn State welcomes students with disabilities into the University's educational programs. If you have a disabilityrelated need for reasonable academic adjustments in this course, contact the Office for Disability Services (ODS) at
814-863-1807 (V/TTY). For further information regarding ODS, please visit the Office for Disability Services Web
site at http://equity.psu.edu/ods/. In order to receive consideration for course accommodations, you must
contact ODS and provide documentation (see the documentation guidelines at
http://equity.psu.edu/ods/guidelines/documentation-guidelines). If the documentation supports the need for
academic adjustments, ODS will provide a letter identifying appropriate academic adjustments. Please share this
letter and discuss the adjustments with your instructor as early in the course as possible. You must contact ODS
and request academic adjustment letters at the beginning of each semester.
Course Requirements –
Exams: Five total, 100 points each, multiple choice, taken at the Testing Center (25 questions, 50
minutes), you pick the time slot on the exam day. No exam scores are dropped. You will receive
an email requesting you to sign up for a time slot approximately one week before each exam
date. Failure to schedule a time slot in a timely manner will result in a 0 for your exam score.
Please view their material at http://testing.psu.edu/Students/ if you are unfamiliar with the
testing center. If you experience technology issues during the exam, immediately power down
your monitor and proceed to the main desk to report your error. Failure to follow the course
policies about exams or the Testing Center rules will result in a 0 for your exam score. Exam
details appear in the Study Aids folder in ANGEL>Lessons. You are allowed to have something to
write with, a calculator as listed in materials for the course (above), and one page of handwritten
notes (9X11 front and back, color / highlighting ok) for each exam, and scrap paper will be
provided but must be turned in. Exams will be open for review on ANGEL after all students have
completed the assignment
Final exam: 300 points, cumulative, multiple choice, as scheduled by the University (50 questions, 90
minutes). Check elion Sept 30 for our exam schedule (usually scheduled Thurs or Fri of finals
week). If you have a conflict, you must file with the registrar’s office between Sept 30 and Oct 20.
The instructor does not have the ability to reschedule your final exam for any reason, especially
because your ride leaves early. Failure to show up on time for your final exam or failure to follow
the rules for exams will result in a 0 for your score. Final exam details appear in the Study Aids
folder in ANGEL>Lessons. You are allowed to have something to write with and scrap paper will
be provided but must be turned in
Lecture Video Quizzes: One quiz per chapter, 2-6 points each, taken on ANGEL outside of class (multiple
choice questions, no timer – videos are about 10 minutes each and each quiz may have 2-6
videos, only the first submission counts) due before the lecture class that starts the material.
Quizzes are available on ANGEL starting from the first day of classes until the class time when the
material is started; you do not have to wait until right before class to take the quiz. Although the
quizzes will have an unlimited number of attempts available before the due date (in case you want
to view the videos again), only the first submission will count. Video quizzes will be open for
unlimited practice after the due date a separate folder on ANGEL>Lessons>Study Aids
Lab Quizzes: One quiz per week (one week has two quizzes), fifteen total, 10 points each, none dropped;
questions about the textbook or project guidelines all listed ahead of time on ANGEL>Lessons>
Labs>. Prepare your work as outlined on the lab directions or project guidelines file and open the
timed quiz only when you are ready to submit your work (10 multiple choice, fill in the blank or
essay questions, 50 minutes, only the first submission counts), due before the lab class ends.
ANGEL will grade all questions with the exception of essay questions which must be graded by the
instructor and TA. Until essay questions are graded, the quiz score will not show up in the grade
book. Failure to submit the quiz before the due date / time will result in no score for that quiz.
Student answers will be available for review upon submission – it is your responsibility to make
sure they submitted as you desired. Requests not made immediately after submission about
submission errors will not be considered. Quizzes are available on ANGEL usually starting on the
Friday before the lab quiz day until the end of your lab class on that lab quiz day; you do not have
to wait until class to take the quiz. Although the quizzes will have an unlimited number of
attempts available before the due date (in case you want to check your answers for questions you
were not asked on your first attempt), only the first submission will count

Lecture Activities: 21 total, 5 points extra credit each based on effort, due before class ends. Lecture
Activities will be handed out in lecture class following a brief example by the instructor. Failure to
arrive on time will result in no opportunity to participate in the activity. Lecture Activities not
turned in before class time ends will receive no score. Solutions are posted after class on
ANGEL>Lessons>Study Aids. Extra credit cannot be made up; no extra credit beyond this will be
created
Makeup Policy: Forgetting to turn in an assignment does not warrant a makeup; please don’t ask. All
makeup requests must be discussed with your Instructor prior to the due date / time of the
assignment either in person with supporting documentation, over the phone (if there is no
answer, leave a message slowly and clearly stating your name, course number and section
number, ANGEL ID, and a way to contact you – phone number to call back, txt, or email in ANGEL
Communicate) with two way communication happening before the due date /time, or in ANGEL
Communicate (with supporting documentation for the reason and a way to complete the
conversation quickly – phone number, txt, or reply where you will check it before the due date /
time) with two way communication happening before the due date /time. Requests made
through the Instructor’s webmail account will be denied
Students adding the class after the first day of classes will have one business day after enrollment
to contact the Instructor about making up missed assignments; students waiting longer than this
will not be able to make up missed work. Assignments regularly due for the class will start to
apply to such students two business days after the day of enrollment. All agreed upon makeup
work is due within five business days of enrollment in the manner discussed with the Instructor
Conflicts for exams must be entirely arranged (discussed and agreed upon by you and the
instructor) before the actual exam. Conflicts due to University Approved reasons will be
rescheduled before the actual exam time (not after) and may result in a slightly different (but not
harder nor easier) exam. Conflicts due to medical emergency will be rescheduled within 24 hours
of the original exam time and may require documentation and may result in a slightly different
(but not harder nor easier) exam. Conflicts due to serious medical issues that prevent the
reschedule in 24 hours must have supporting documentation and will result in a slightly different
(but not harder nor easier) exam
Conflicts for the final exam must be scheduled through the registrar’s office
(www.psu.edu/oue/aappm/F-3.html). Conflict requests for the final exam after the filing period
has ended will be denied. Conflicts due to serious medical emergency or University events with
supporting documentation will be considered on an individual basis
Conflicts with lab quiz due dates / times will be considered on an individual basis only. If you have
a conflict with the exact due date / time, please complete the quiz early
Conflicts with lecture video quiz due dates / times will be considered on an individual basis only.
If you have a conflict with the exact due date / time, please complete the quiz early
Conflicts with lecture activities will result in 0 extra credit for that assignment. Extra credit cannot
be made up
Course Grading – All grading will be updated weekly on ANGEL>Reports>”Grades” in drop down menu>”Table” or
“Drill Down”. Please ignore ANGEL’s calculations of percentages – they do not make sense with
our point-based grading system. Check your scores regularly; failure to report discrepancies
within one week of posting will result in no adjustment
