    Select an Area of Study from either Unit 1 or Unit 3 of the current VCE Study Design. You are to develop two 60-minute lesson plans with regard to selected key knowledge and skills. Together, the two lesson plans should include a range of at least three resources embedded in fully developed teaching and learning activities appropriate for the selected content
    Lesson template has been provided. The Unit I will be focusing on is Unit 1- Area Study 2 (Proving guilt) from the current VCE Study Design 2024 (provided in the files). The lessons need to be sequenced meaning one happens before the other. Please look at the exemplars as a guide of how I would like to set it out and how it should be presented. 

  • “Exploring Statistical Analysis: T-Tests and Mann-Whitney Tests in Social Science Research”

    *** JASP REQUIRED
    Overview
    For this assignment, you’ll practice what you’ve learned over the past 2 weeks. You’ll also begin working toward your final assignment in Week 9.
    Preparation
    Before you begin the assignment, complete the following:
    Download the Thinking About Your Data worksheet (attached, doc 1).
    Review your Week 4: Assignment PreparationLinks to an external site. reading list(see below)

    Instructions
    Complete and submit the Thinking About Your Data worksheet.
    Tips for success:
    Do each step one at a time. Running statistical tests requires paying attention to details.
    Pay special attention to which data file to use—you’ll use several of them.
    Keep JASP, your textbook, and Statistical Analysis in JASP: A Guide for StudentsLinks to an external site. open when working on your worksheet.
    Read, don’t skim, each part of the worksheet. The text will often help you find the answer.
    Do the entire worksheet (it’s long).
    When you are done, scroll to the very end of the document. Then scroll up slowly to double-check that you have an answer in each box. Going in reverse (from the end to the beginning) is often the best way to spot something you overlooked earlier.
