   SLP

    

    

    

   Using the data you collected in the Module 1 SLP, write a paper (1–3 pages) including all of the following content:

    

   • Calculate the mean, median, and mode of your collected data. Show and explain your calculations.

   • Are these numbers higher or lower than you expected? Explain. 

   • Which of these measures of central tendency do you think most accurately describes the variable you are looking at? Provide your justification. 

   • Create a box plot to represent the data, labeling and numerating all 5 points on the box plot. For the plot, you may draw and insert it in your paper as a picture. Make sure it is legible.

     Submit your paper at the end of Module 2.

     SLP Assignment Expectations

     Answer all questions posted in the instructions. Use information from the modular background readings and videos as well as any good-quality resource you can find. Cite all sources in APA style and include a reference list at the end of your paper.

     Note about page length: Your ability to clearly articulate and explain these concepts is being assessed. The page length is a general guideline. A 3- or 4-page paper does not necessarily guarantee a grade of “A.” An “A” paper would include detailed information and explanations of all the assignment requirements listed above. The letter grade will be based upon demonstrated mastery of the content and ability to articulate and apply the concepts in the assignment. Keep this in mind while writing your paper.
