You decide to study the effect of GRE preparatory course on GRE score. Describe, in detail, how you will design your study, how you will collect data, and how you are going to statistically test whether the GRE course had an effect on GRE score. Be as specific as you can about your hypotheses. How would you, if at all, change your study if you decided to study the effect of the GRE preparatory course on graduate school admission instead?

Consider a simple model to measure the effects of taking a preparatory course (a binary variable, course) on eventual score on a college admissions exam: score = Bo + Bicourse + u a. If we want to test whether or not the preparatory course has an effect on the score of the college admissions exam, what are our null and alternative hypotheses? When do we reject the null hypothesis? b. Why might course be correlated with u? Is ê, likely...

3) Suppose you are an educational researcher who wishes to examine the effect of a school district's class size on its student achievement. Specifically, you are interested in whether in the U.S., on average, school districts with smaller class sizes perform differently on test scores than school districts with larger class sizes. To test this, you have conducted two surveys. The first survey randomly sampled 238 school districts with small class sizes. This survey found a sample average test score...

A teacher believes that whatever he says in class has no effect on his students. Just as he's about to quit his profession, a statistician enters the room and suggests that the teacher design a study to test his assumption. The study will look at whether providing in-class feedback on homework assignments enhances classroom performance. The teacher wants to know whether providing feedback before or after returning the assignments is most useful. He's also interested in the most effective means...
