- Evaluating students’ assignments and proctoring exams
Semester(s): Spring 2025
GEO 211: Univariate Statistics in Geography (Lecture)
Department of Geography, University at Buffalo
Course Description:
Introduces probability as a measure of uncertainty. Addresses the use of such measures of uncertainty for describing data, and for making inferences about large populations from small samples. These descriptive and inferential aspects of statistics are illustrated using geographic examples from a wide variety of different fields.
Responsibility:
- Designed and organized class focused on descriptive and inferential aspects of statistics
- Taught and mentored undergraduate students
- Evaluated students’ assignments and proctored exams
