BUS 308 Week 1 DQ 1 Language
Numbers and measurements are the language of business.. Organizations look at results, expenses, quality levels, efficiencies, time, costs, etc. What measures does your department keep track of ? How are the measures collected, and how are they summarized/described? How are they used in making decisions? (Note: If you do not have a job where measures are available to you, ask someone you know for some examples or conduct outside research on an interest of yours.)
http://entirecourse.com/course/BUS-308-Statistics-For-Managers/BUS-308-Week-1-DQ-1-Language


BUS 308 Week 1 DQ 2 Levels
Managers and professionals often pay more attention to the levels of their measures (means, sums, etc.) than to the variation in the data (the dispersion or the probability patterns/distributions that describe the data). For the measures you identified in Discussion 1, why must dispersion be considered to truly understand what the data is telling us about what we measure/track? How can we make decisions about outcomes and results if we do not understand the consistency (variation) of the data? Does looking at the variation in the data give us a different understanding of results?

BUS 308 Week 2 DQ 1 t-Tests
In looking at your business, when and why would you want to use a one-sample mean test (either z or t) or a two-sample t-test? Create a null and alternate hypothesis for one of these issues. How would you use the results?

BUS 308 Week 2 DQ 2 Variation
Variation exists in virtually all parts of our lives. We often see variation in results in what we spend (utility costs each month, food costs, business supplies, etc.). Consider the measures and data you use (in either your personal or job activities). When are differences (between one time period and another, between different production lines, etc.) between average or actual results important? How can you or your department decide whether or not the variation is important? How could using a mean difference test help?
