The document outlines an orientation schedule for a quantitative techniques course. Sessions 1-2 will cover arranging and displaying data through frequency distributions and graphs. It will also cover measures of central tendency and dispersion, including the mean, median, mode, variance, and standard deviation. Sessions 3-4 will provide an introduction to probability, covering basic terminology, types of probability, probability rules, and independent and dependent events.
