Course: PSYC 301 Statistical Methods in Psychol

This is the Course Orientation page. It has several steps to ensure you are ready to meet the requirements for taking this online delivered course and to get us oriented to being a class.

This is the list, the details of what you need to do are below:

1. Install jamovi.
2. Check out the syllabus.
3. Email the instructor.
4. Schedule a meeting.
5. Submit a paper.
6. Take a quiz.

You will only have completed the orientation when all of the above 6 items have been completed.

1) Download and install jamovi on your computer. This is essential because half the points in the course are related to use of this software. As was mentioned in emails sent prior to the semester, jamovi only works on Windows and Macintosh computers. It does not work on Chrome OS computers, tablets, or phones. (This was mentioned in two emails sent to registered students prior to summer term.) Follow this link to the jamovi software page. If you are using a computer issued by the university, jamovi should be available via the Managed Software system. If it is not, put in a help ticket to get it installed for you.

2) Check out the syllabus and then...

3) ...send an email to the instructor (pcbernhardt@frostburg.edu) answering the following question: What is the date the first online assignment (OA 1) is scheduled for?

4) Schedule a meeting with the instructor using the online scheduler. This requires going back to the home page of the course and clicking on the link there. You will NOT actually meet at that time, but it shows you know how to schedule a meeting. You will also see how the system sends you reminders, etc.

5) Submit a paper by following this link to the assignment page.

6) Take this linked quiz which will ask questions about the course based on the following items: You know how to find the textbook, you have jamovi installed, you have looked at certain elements of the syllabus.

That's it. The instructor manually monitors and grades this.
