Introduction

Introduce yourselves!

Icebreaker: Have you ever played a VR game? How was it?

Groupwork

1. Think about an answer yourself
2. Discuss your answer with your partner(s)
3. Write down your joint answer

Rank the below measures of dispersion by how much they are changed (i.e., their sensitivity) to outliers.

• Coefficient of Variation
• Range
• Standard Deviation
• Semi-interquartile Range

Hand-in

Have ONE person from each group submit the group’s answers:
