A. Description

This course focuses on the research methods andstatistics that are commonly used in the field of sport/exercise and healthsciences. Emphases are on the applications of the techniques presented in theclass to real-world research projects. The course assumes that the studentshave taken some entry-level research design and statistics courses.

B. Organization

It is primarily a lecture course in which topics arepresented by the instructor. Basic concepts and methodologies are firstdescribed in sufficient detail. This is followed by presenting and discussingreal-word examples of applications. Students are encouraged to bring a laptopto the class. In-class participation is strongly encouraged.
