Median absolute deviationIn statistics, the median absolute deviation (MAD) is a robust measure of the variability of a univariate sample of quantitative data. It can also refer to the population parameter that is estimated by the MAD calculated from a sample. For a univariate data set X1, X2, ..., Xn, the MAD is defined as the median of the absolute deviations from the data's median : that is, starting with the residuals (deviations) from the data's median, the MAD is the median of their absolute values. Consider the data (1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 6, 9).
Erreur typeLerreur type d'une statistique (souvent une estimation d'un paramètre) est l'écart type de sa distribution d'échantillonnage ou l'estimation de son écart type. Si le paramètre ou la statistique est la moyenne, on parle d'erreur type de la moyenne. La distribution d'échantillonnage est générée par tirage répété et enregistrements des moyennes obtenues. Cela forme une distribution de moyennes différentes, et cette distribution a sa propre moyenne et variance.
Student teacherA student teacher or prac teacher (practice teacher) is a college, university or graduate student who is teaching under the supervision of a certified teacher in order to qualify for a degree in education. The term is also often used interchangeably with pre-service teacher. It is a much broader term to include those students that are studying the required coursework in pedagogy, as well as their specialty, but have not entered the supervised teaching portion of their training.
Unbiased estimation of standard deviationIn statistics and in particular statistical theory, unbiased estimation of a standard deviation is the calculation from a statistical sample of an estimated value of the standard deviation (a measure of statistical dispersion) of a population of values, in such a way that the expected value of the calculation equals the true value. Except in some important situations, outlined later, the task has little relevance to applications of statistics since its need is avoided by standard procedures, such as the use of significance tests and confidence intervals, or by using Bayesian analysis.
ApprentissageL’apprentissage est un ensemble de mécanismes menant à l'acquisition de savoir-faire, de savoirs ou de connaissances. L'acteur de l'apprentissage est appelé apprenant. On peut opposer l'apprentissage à l'enseignement dont le but est de dispenser des connaissances et savoirs, l'acteur de l'enseignement étant l'enseignant.
Certified teacherA certified teacher is an educator who has earned credentials from an authoritative source, such as the government, a higher education institution or a private body or source. This teacher qualification gives a teacher authorization to teach and grade in pre-schools, primary or secondary education in countries, schools, content areas or curricula where authorization is required. While many authorizing entities require student teaching experience before earning teacher certification, routes vary from country to country.
Service-learningService-learning is an educational approach that combines learning objectives with community service in order to provide a pragmatic, progressive learning experience while meeting societal needs. Service-learning involves students (k-12, higher ed) in service projects to apply classroom learning for local agencies that exist to effect positive change in the community. The National Youth Leadership Council defines service learning as "a philosophy, pedagogy, and model for community development that is used as an instructional strategy to meet learning goals and/or content standards.
Évaluation paresseuseL’évaluation paresseuse (), appelée aussi appel par nécessité ou évaluation retardée est une technique d'implémentation des programmes récursifs pour laquelle l'évaluation d'un paramètre de fonction ne se fait pas avant que les résultats de cette évaluation ne soient réellement nécessaires. Ces résultats, une fois calculés, sont préservés pour des réutilisations ultérieures. Dans un langage comme Haskell, l'évaluation est paresseuse par défaut.
Coefficient de variationvignette|CV (coefficient de variation) = l'écart-type sur la moyenne En théorie des probabilités et statistiques, le coefficient de variation également nommé écart type relatif, est une mesure de dispersion relative. Le RSD (relative standard deviation en anglais) est défini comme la valeur absolue du coefficient de variation et est souvent exprimé en pourcentage. Le coefficient de variation est défini comme le rapport entre l'écart-type et la moyenne : L'écart-type seul ne permet le plus souvent pas de juger de la dispersion des valeurs autour de la moyenne.
Pooled varianceIn statistics, pooled variance (also known as combined variance, composite variance, or overall variance, and written ) is a method for estimating variance of several different populations when the mean of each population may be different, but one may assume that the variance of each population is the same. The numerical estimate resulting from the use of this method is also called the pooled variance. Under the assumption of equal population variances, the pooled sample variance provides a higher precision estimate of variance than the individual sample variances.
Nombre de sujets nécessairesEn statistique, la détermination du nombre de sujets nécessaires est l'acte de choisir le nombre d'observations ou de répétitions à inclure dans un échantillon statistique. Ce choix est très important pour pouvoir faire de l'inférence sur une population. En pratique, la taille de l'échantillon utilisé dans une étude est déterminée en fonction du coût de la collecte des données et de la nécessité d'avoir une puissance statistique suffisante.
Experiential learningExperiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience, and is more narrowly defined as "learning through reflection on doing". Hands-on learning can be a form of experiential learning, but does not necessarily involve students reflecting on their product. Experiential learning is distinct from rote or didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning such as action learning, adventure learning, free-choice learning, cooperative learning, service-learning, and situated learning.
