10.A newspaper article reported that “Children who routinely compete in vigorous after-school sports on smoggy days are three times more likely to get asthma than their non-athletic peers.” (Sacramento Bee, Feb 1, 2002, p. A1) Of the following, which is the most important additional information that would be useful before making a decision about participation in school sports?

11.A study done by the Center for Academic Integrity at Rutgers University surveyed 2116 students at 21 colleges and universities. Some of the schools had an “honor code” and others did not. Of the students at schools with an honor code, 7% reported having plagiarized a paper via the Internet, while at schools with no honor code, 13% did so. (Sacramento Bee, Feb 29, 2000, D1.) For this study, which of the following statements about percent increase in risk is correct?
 A) There is a 53.8% increase in the risk of plagiarism at a school with no honor code, compared to a school with an honor code.
 B) There is a 185.7% increase in the risk of plagiarism at a school with no honor code, compared to a school with an honor code.
 C) There is a 6% increase in the risk of plagiarism at a school with no honor code, compared to a school with an honor code.
 D) There is an 85.7% increase in the risk of plagiarism at a school with no honor code, compared to a school with an honor code.

12.A survey asked people how often they exceed speed limits. The data are then categorized into the above contingency table of counts showing the relationship between age group and response. Among people with age under 30 what are the odds that they always exceed the speed limit?
 A) 2 to 1
 B) 1 to 2
 C) 1 to 1
 D) 50%
 
13.The table above shows the opinions of 1447 respondents in the General Social Survey to the question “Do you favor or oppose the death penalty for persons convicted of murder?” The purpose of examining the data is to see if there is a gender difference in how people would respond to this question. State the null hypotheses for this study.
 A) There is no relationship in the population between gender and opinion on the death penalty.
 B) There is a relationship in the population between gender and opinion on the death penalty.
 C) There is no relationship in the sample between gender and opinion on the death penalty.
 D) There is a relationship in the sample between gender and opinion on the death penalty.

14.Students in a statistics class were asked, “With whom do you find it easier to make friends:person of the same sex, person of opposite sex, or no preference?” A table summarizing the responses by gender is given below. Minitab results for a chi-square test for these data were: Chi-Sq = 7.15 DF=2 P-value = 0.028. Assume these students represent a random sample of all students. Based on the chi-square test, what conclusion can be made about the relationship between gender and response to the question about friends, using a = 0.05? In the population:
 A) The relationship is not statistically significant so there is a relationship.
 B) The relationship is statistically significant so there is no relationship.
 C) The relationship is not statistically significant so there is no relationship.
 D) The relationship is statistically significant so there is a relationship.
 
15.The table above shows the opinions of 953 respondents in the General Social Survey to the question “Everything considered, would you say that in general, you approve or disapprove of wiretapping?” The purpose of examining the data is to see if there is a gender difference in how people would respond to this question. State the null hypotheses for this study.
 A) There is a relationship in the population between gender and approval of wiretapping
 B) There is no relationship in the population between gender and approval of wiretapping
 C) There is no relationship in the sample between gender and approval of wiretapping
 D) There is a relationship in the sample between gender and approval of wiretapping

Evaluation of a SIOP Lesson Plan

Find a lesson plan from “SIOP Lesson Plans and Activities.” What SEI strategies are incorporated in the lesson that you have chosen? What differentiation would be needed for pre-emergent or emergent (stages 1-3) level ELLs?

How does the lesson plan address the following:

1. Comprehensible input
2. ESL strategies
3. Ongoing, specific, and immediate feedback
4. Grouping structures and techniques
5. Building background and vocabulary development
6. Current materials in English Language Development (ELD) instruction (lesson and text modifications)
7. Student prior knowledge
8. Student engagement

Evaluate this lesson by creating a table that identifies how each of the SIOP components (1-8 above) is addressed. The explanation should be a 250-500 word essay.
