Learning objective for today:
U
se a data set to prioritize different candidate models
and formulate associated hypothesesSlide2

Exponential Model
1. Density-dependent multiplicative growth
2. Density-independent multiplicative growth
3. Additive growth
Choose which hypothesis
aligns to each model and
explain why you selected it Slide3

Summative Assessment
1A. In-class group formulation of additional time series data and group swap1B. Build a new model and formulate hypothesis based upon submitted data
.
Real-life case study: Given a new data set chosen from actual publications, pick a model and formulate a hypothesis. Group work in and out of class, followed by an in class presentation that will be peer evaluated (Rubric provided by instructor)

-Class Exam QuestionsSlide8
Summative assessment Q1
Question 1: Which model from column 2 goes with which visual representation in column 1?
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
A=1, B=2, C=3
A=2, B=3, C=1
A=3, B=2, C=1
A=3, B=1, C=2Slide9
Summative assessment Q2
Question 2: Put the hypotheses in column 3 in the right order with models A, B, and C.
