Course Length and Pacing

ELI 101 consists of 18 hours of class time each week. The English Language Institute
follows a modular system with two modules taught in each academic semester. Thus, the
course length for ELI 101 is one module of seven calendar weeks which allows for a total
of 126 hours of class time each module. The 101 Instructor's Pacing Guide is designed on
a weekly basis, specifying available materials and providing instructors with a degree of
flexibility, allowing ample class time for language practice, and for the incorporation of
relevant supplementary materials to facilitate SLO achievement. It also emphasizes
regular Learner Training as an essential component of the learning process.

Required Course
This course is designed to teach students how to use a broad base of statistical methods and
concepts to organize, analyze, and interpret hypotheses developed in various applications. This
course consists of three main parts: (1) Data analysis and description,
(2) Probability and random variables, and (3) Inferential statistics. Main goal for this class is to
familiarize students with the various techniques of statistical analyses that are utilized in
different disciplines. Emphasis will be on the basic concepts and their meaning, as well as their
applications and interpretation
