This site gives a definition and an example of normal distributions. Topics include assessing normality and normal probability plots.

This site gives a definition and an example of categorical data. Topics include two-way tables, bar graphs, and segmented bar graphs.

This site gives an explanation, a definition and an example of inference in linear regression. Topics include confidence intervals for intercept and slope, significance tests, mean response, and prediction intervals.

This site gives an explanation, a definition and an example of multiple linear regression. Topics include confidence intervals, tests of significance, and squared multiple correlation.

This website provides lesson plans, activities, a problem bank, and links to references that meet NCTM standards for probability.

This section of the Engineering Statistics Handbook describes in detail the process of choosing an experimental design to obtain the results you need. The basic designs an engineer needs to know about are described in detail.

The GAISE project was funded by a Strategic Initiative Grant from ASA in 2003 to develop ASA-endorsed guidelines for assessment and instruction in statistics in the K-12 curriculum and for the introductory college statistics course.

This Java based applet gives students an opportunity to work through confidence interval problems for the mean. The material provides written word problems in which an individual must be able to correctly identify the given parts for a confidence interval calculation, and then be able to use this information to find the confidence interval. It gives step by step prompts to encourage students to choose the correct numbers and "cast of characters".

A collection of links to video workshops for students in mathematics. Includes many topics from statistics to math and science to algebra.

This site provides a collection of applets and their descriptions. Some of the titles include the Monte Carlo Estimation of Pi, Can You Beat Randomness?, One-Dimensional Random Walk, Two-Dimensional Random Walk, The Anthill and Molecular Motion, Diffusion Limited Aggregation, The Self-Avoiding Walk, Fractal Coastlines, and Forest Fires and Percolation.
