Forty students were enrolled in a section of a general education course in statistical reasoning during the fall quarter of 2012 at CSU. The instructor made course materials, grades, and lecture notes available to students on a class web site, and course management software kept track of how often each student accessed any of the web pages on the class site. One month after the course began, the instructor requested a report that indicated how many times each student had accessed a web page on the class site. The 40 observations in ranked order were: 0 1 1 1 2 2 3 4 4 4 1.5 5 7 7 8 8 12 12 12 13 13 14 14 16 18 19 19 20 20 21 22 23 26 36 36 37 42 84 331 The median value for this sample is ________.
