A Course covering Achievement, Merit and Excellence for Statistics at NCEA3 Level by Geldof.
‘Achieving in Statistics’ is a write-on student workbook that provides a complete revision programme for all seven Achievement Standards in the NCEA Level 3 Statistics and Modelling course. This book can be used as an ongoing study resource for Level 3 statistics students. Once completed the book becomes a useful set of study notes at exam time and should be kept and used as a reference book. Alternatively ‘Achieving in Statistics’ may be bought towards the end of the year and used as a pre-exam study programme.
Instruction and worked examples appear on most pages and a full set of removable answers (which act as a guide to structuring quality answers) is included. At the end of each chapter is a valuable practise test for the achievement standard. This is usually taken just before internal assessment or external exams. Also included in this book is a formula page and the assessment criteria for achievement, merit and excellence for the seven Level 3 Achievement Standards in Statistics and Modelling.
