Hello SFCS scholars,

For todays assignment go to our SFCS blog.

Chuck

After working through the first 3 sections of the spss tutorial ( Introduction, Using the Help System, & Reading Data) go to our class blog page.

Go down to the first lab assignment. You’ll find the following link that will take you to David Howell’s website. Get the sex data from his site into the SPSS editor and save it to your P: Drive. We’ll run some descriptives on it soon.

Dear Calculating Gurus,

Per our discussion in class, we’ll be meeting in the HNS 152 lab to do some SPSS work.

Predicament — when both the Gilmore Girls and House come on at the same time.

- Informed Consent  

“Somehow I just can’t imagine you taking a Jell-O shot.”
- Informed Consent

“I’m a cripple, remember? Accommodations must be made.”
- Informed Consent

“Is this an intervention? You’re a little late, since I’m not using drugs anymore. I am, however, still hooked on phonics.”
- Cane and Able

“The kid is having nightmares. Only happen at night. It’s right there in the name.”
- Cane and Able

“She was being metaphorical. She was trying to sound like me. I have no
idea what you meant, but I could smell what the Rock was cooking.”
- Cane and Able

“Why don’t I have high-def in my office? I’m a department head.”
-Cane and Able

Cuddy: “Why did you.”
House: “Why does a dog lick its workplace-acceptable euphemism for testicles?”
- Meaning

“Oh, I stuck that primo! How rad am I?”
- Meaning

Cameron: “You’re lucky he didn’t die.”
House: “I’m lucky? He’s the one who didn’t die.”

Scholars,

Anyone doing anything? I know of a few that are… check out the call for research from the National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR). Here’s the link… everything needs to be in by Dec 1.

Hello 8 am scholars,

So I totally told everyone to keep their exams on Wednesday to help them prepare for the final examination. I had forgotten my new protocal of retesting in an open note format. Feel free to complete your exam and and use it as an open note on Friday. Actually bring it with you because I don’t won’t to make more copies and waste paper.

Try and use this as a learning tool. Spend some quality time with those exams (not your friends exam with the answers) and figure out why the correct answers are right and why the incorrect answers are wrong. Improve your test taking skills!

I probably won’t do this the next time around so use this experience to gain some wisdom. You will always be welcome to keep your exam after the open note test to help you prepare for the final, just not the second attempt at the exam.

XOXO, now who am I?

PS thanks to Big Red the yoga Guru for orienting me

Collaborative Knowledge Scholars,

Let’s help everyone get this AlcoholEdu test finished. Work on it tomorrow as your virtual Thursday project.
