²². Resume
The purpose of this Module is to build the Fundamental Knowledge's and the Application of the Basic Research Methods and the Applied Statistics in the field of Physical Education, Sport and Kinesiology. During the study of Bachelors from our 3 Faculties are involved in practical sessions and work - shops with Microsoft Excel maintaining real data, measuring central tendency, variance, regressions, correlations and testing different types of hypotheses in order to control the training process and to predict the level of the sports results and the performance of their samples (classes, teams, groups).
