tracking investments as a stats assignment
One semester, I tried tracking a classroom "investment portfolio" as a means of keeping students interested in statistics.
My Assessment of the Assignment:
Overall, the assignment was interesting for most students.
- relates to data visualizations
- ideas of risk using standard deviation
- compared their own portfolio's performance to benchmark indexes such as NASDAQ, SP500, and Dow Jones
- introduces students to investments
My Assessment of the Assignment:
Overall, the assignment was interesting for most students.
- works best if we check in regularly to see how the class portfolio is performing compared to indices-- students got a kick out of seeing their portfolio out-perform the indices
- assign a reading of standard deviation as a measure of risk
- assign a reading about alpha and beta
