Embracing Diversity

Lesson 5: Computer Skills
Topic: Language Idioms & Spreadsheets/Statistics

Part of:
Unit: Embracing Diversity


  • Focus: Using the computer to help us find information is essential in our changing world. Knowing how to manipulate the Hearing Handicap Inventory (HHIE-S) spreadsheet to give us needed information is the focus of this lesson.

Introduction

Lesson 5, “Computer Skills,” gives students more practice in calculating descriptive statistics and graphing using a computer. Rather than the small data set in lesson 4, students use a larger data set with 100 observations. This activity extends lesson 4 by introducing sorting by categories (gender in this example) and obtaining category specific statistics.

Objectives

Students will be able to:

  • use the computer to find the mean of an entire set
  • use the computer to sort a given set
  • construct a graph displaying information
