Provide an appropriate response.We want to compare two different groups of students, students taking Composition 1 in a traditional lecture format and students taking Composition 1 in a distance learning format. We know that the mean score on the research paper is 85 for both groups. What additional information would be provided by knowing the standard deviation?

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary. Possible answer: The standard deviation will give an indication of how widely the scores vary. More precisely, it gives an indication of how much the scores deviate, on average, from the mean score of 85.
