This guide is not meant to be a textbook on statistics; it only covers topics most relevant to high school biology, focusing on methods and examples rather than theory. It is organized in four parts: Part 1 covers descriptive statistics, methods used to organize, summarize, and describe quantifiable data.
Mathematical modelling plays an increasingly important role in almost any area of life sciences, and this interactive textbook focuses on the areas of population ecology, infectious diseases, immunology and cell dynamics, gene networks and pharmacokinetics. It is aimed at anyone who is interested in learning about how to model biological systems, including undergraduate and postgraduate ...
exposed to biology in secondary school, my course may seem like a different sub-ject. The ability to model problems using mathematics requires almost no rote memorization, but it does require a deep understanding of basic principles and a wide range of mathematical techniques. Biology offers a rich variety of topics that
Cronbach’s alpha coefficient ( ): A coefficient of consistency that measures how well a set of variables or items measures. a single, unidimensional, latent construct in a scale or inven-tory. Alpha scores are conventionally interpreted as follows: high, 0.90; medium, 0.70 to 0.89; and low, 0.55 to 0.69.

the mean as a representative value of the distribution (i.e. the sum of deviations from mean are equal to zero). Furthermore, the socialist and fulcrum conceptualizations require minimal recourse to mathematics, and as a result, are likely to appeal to students in introductory statistics courses that suffer from mathematics anxiety.
