Reason For Learning
An understanding of mean, median and mode (measures of central tendency) is important when interpreting survey data. Many published surveys vary the way they express 'averages' to best suit their cause. Can you see through their tricks? This learning bite will also give you the tools necessary to compare sets of data.
Learning Intention
Calculations of mean, median and mode of univariate (single category) data (do not include comparison of data sets - this is a separate learning bite)
