1. In your own words, what is a sampling distribution for the mean? 2. What are the requirements for the Central Limit Theorem? (E.g. what is required of the sample or population for us to have an approximately normal sampling distribution?) 3. Once the Central Limit Theorem requirements have been met, what is the mean, standard deviation, and shape of the distribution? 4. How can you tell in a problem that you should be using the Central Limit Theorem (Sampling Distribution) vs. using the normal distribution for the population?
