After concisely defining the purpose of statistics, section one of this program uses Five-Card Charlie’s Fuzzy Dice Cola to examine the concepts of population and sampling and to catalogue the elements of statistical problems. In section two, data derived from the National Martyr Competition provides an opportunity to set up a relative frequency histogram, which involves classes and their widths, boundaries, frequencies, and relative frequencies.

		Hypothesis Testing, Types of Error, and Small Samples In this program, a helpful bunch of bullies comes to grips with null and alternate hypotheses, the significance level, the test statistic, acceptance and rejection regions, one- and two-tailed tests, and Type I and Type II errors. The essentials of d...(more details)		VHS $99.95 DVD $99.95 DVD + 3-Year Streaming $119.93 3-Year Streaming $99.95
		Probability What are the odds that a casino card dealer and a pair of Simon and Garfunkel wannabes know something about probability? This program begins by defining probability and sampling, experiments, simple and compound events, and sample space.

		Sampling Distributions and Large Samples In this program, data derived from a bully convention helps illustrate how statisticians ensure statistical reliability. After describing reliability testing, the mean of a sampling distribution, the Central Limit Theorem, and the standard error of t...(more details)		VHS $99.95 DVD $99.95 DVD + 3-Year Streaming $119.93 3-Year Streaming $99.95
		Measures of Variability and Relative Standing In this program, grumpy old men and competitive statistics students serve as samples for working with two more types of numerical representation: variability and relative standing. Section one wrestles with range, deviation, variance, and standard de...(more details)		VHS $99.95 DVD $99.95 DVD + 3-Year Streaming $119.93 3-Year Streaming $99.95
		Other Graphical Methods and Numerical Methods A knowledge of graphing is essential to visualizing data-and sometimes leads to free nachos. Moving beyond the relative frequency histogram, this program studies the distribution curve and the stem-and-leaf display.
