INTERNET RESOURCES FOR TEACHING STATISTICS

Robin H. Lock

ABSTRACT: Many excellent resources for supporting statistics instruction are freely and globally available on the World Wide Web. However, finding useful information among the ever-widening sprawl of on-line sites can be a daunting task. The purpose of this paper is to help sift through the range of possibilities and highlight some of the sites which we have found to be the most helpful. We consider on-line access to electronic journals, discussion groups, statistical software, teaching aids, and course materials. Special attention is paid to using the Web as a resource for both students and teachers to find or produce interesting datasets.
