Abstract
In this virtual poster, I will demonstrate some of the R Shiny apps I have created to aid teaching and learning in introductory statistics (or data science) courses. Many statistical concepts are dynamically visual in nature -- i.e. as x changes, a corresponding change occurs in y -- and students can struggle to visualize these concepts solely by a verbal description. Shiny apps are well-suited for facilitating students' visualization of these concepts, and more importantly, their interaction with them. They make great lecture supplements, entertaining in-class activities, and homework problems as well.
