Analysing blocked and paired designs
The questions ask you to work out which estimator a design requires and to judge somebody else's analysis, rather than to repeat a calculation you have already done. Computing a weighted average comes back easily; noticing that an analysis has quietly discarded the design does not.

What this covers

Given a description of units and a design, the learner can decide whether blocking or pairing is warranted, compute the estimator the design requires, and identify analyses that ignore the design structure.
