First you will watch a TED Talk that discusses real-world contexts in which statistical decision making is crucial and consequential: How Juries Are Fooled by Statistics. (Note: Pay special attention to the video from 10:47 to end.) As you answer the discussion questions, think about the statistical concepts you learned in this module regarding statistical decision making, such as true and false positives and negatives. You will write about the ways that statistical decision making is involved in many areas of our daily life and demonstrate your understanding of these key concepts related to inferential statistical decision making

2. Which programmatic theme(s) tie in with the examples?
3.In general, do you think that making Type I or Type II errors is worse?

5. Given your earlier discussion about the importance of statistical thinking for effective citizenship and what you have learned in the course in general and this module specifically, do you still hold the same view about the importance of statistical thinking for the general population? Why or why not?
