Height vs Hand Span
In a previous year, this was the procedure for collecting data:
Record your height in inches. For example 5’0” is 60 inches.
Use a ruler to measure your hand span in centimeters: the distance from the tip of your thumb to pinky finger with your hand splayed as wide as possible.
Have someone from your table enter your measurements at this link (as well as your gender): [link not provided here]

Questions to answer
Interpret correlation for Males, Females, and Everyone combined.
All:
Male:
Female:
Height was measured in inches and hand span was measured in centimeters. How would the correlation change if both hand span and height were measured in inches?
Why is there a large difference in the strength of the correlation for everyone compared to either gender separately?
Word memory scores
15 seconds to memorize 15 words: http://www.randomlists.com/random-words?qty=15
In a previous year, this was the procedure for collecting data:
Round 1
Put up a list of words for 15 seconds and view.
Have 60 seconds to write/type as many words as you can remember.
Score yourself (anonymous, so honesty is best – we’re all going to be bad at this).
Given your first performance, make a guess at how many words you’ll remember in round 2.
Round 2 (repeat of round 1)
