| Abstract: | The article presents a set-by-step usage of Minitab macros that is being used to illustrate sampling distribution of a statistic. Constructivist theory suggests that an individual does not acquire new knowledge through passive means but through interaction with the new knowledge. User should first enter the population date in the data window. Next, user should go to the session window and enable the command line editor. Third, user should run the simulation macros. Finally, run the menu option. |
