Statistics for DIS1

This is the landing page for statistics lecture in DIS 1.

This page contains material for basic statistics introduction for DIS 1 students. We aim to show students how statistics helps analyzing data from user evaluation. We aim to give an overview of workflow so that student appreciate its relationship with HCI.

This is not intended to be extensive since such scope would require a course of its own. For those who are interested, we recommend Practical Statistics for HCI an independent study course developed by Jacob O. Wobbrock at the University of Washington.
