  15. Lecture Explore Assess The java applet can be used to strengthen students’ understanding of time series by allowing them to move points around and add additional data points. A teacher could either show a video in class or have students watch the video as an out-of-class assignment. Teachers can select from a number of topics and choose from over 70 questions (and answers) for linear regression alone.

  33. Explore (1) MatLab Exercises

  34. Explore (2) Several problem sets w/ solutions

  35. Lecture Explore Assess

  36. Assess Several practice quizzes/exams w/ solutions

  37. Lecture Explore Assess DIGSTATS contains examples and datasets, like the one below about Acid Rain. The Intuitor site contains an introduction to hypothesis testing, relating it to what happens at a criminal trial. This website from the University of Canberra (Australia) contains self tests students can use to check their understanding.
