Dear Python Edu-sig folks, Those of you whose duties include teaching basic stats might be interested in these interactive tutorial files, designed to illustrate basic concepts. Running the code opens up an interactive figure window. When you click on a figure to add new points, the statistical tests shown in the figure change accordingly.
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~raj/intro-stats.html Here is a YouTube video showing the interactive demos in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCv_MhaeFo8 The code has lots of comments in it, which attempt to explain the concepts as explicitly as possible. No prior knowledge of Python or statistics is assumed. These programs require the SciPy and Matplotlib modules. The tutorials are: - interactive_mean_std_normal_distribution.py - interactive_one_sample_t_test.py - interactive_two_sample_t_test.py - interactive_correlation_plot.py The same webpage also contains Matlab versions of the scripts. Please feel more than free to use any of the code for teaching, if you find it useful. Yours, Rajeev Raizada Research Assistant Professor Neukom Institute for Computational Science Dartmouth College HB 6255 Hanover NH 03755 Tel: 603 646 0175 E.mail: rajeev.raiz...@dartmouth.edu WWW: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~raj _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
