Title: What LISA Can Do for You and a Tutorial in T-Tests and ANOVA;
Course Information:
The goal of this short course is to first explain the services provided by the Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Statistical Analysis (LISA) and second to offer t-test and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) training for researchers. The discussion of LISA services will also motivate the importance of the remaining four short courses offered in the summer of 2011. The statistical training will include the discussion of the one sample t-test, the two sample t-test, matched-pairs t-test, and ANOVA. We will cover data analysis examples using JMP statistical software.

JMP is available for free download to VT students at http://www.ita.vt.edu/studentsoftware/website/products/stuproductinfo.jmp.html.
