The plan behind the transcript
Why this combination
I added the Statistics minor because Project MAZE is a measurement problem, not just a software one. Building the assessment took databases and software engineering. Proving the scores mean anything takes alternate-form reliability, internal consistency, and correlations with established comprehension measures. I would rather derive those than cite them.
