Carlson K.A., Winquist J.R. An Introduction to Statistics: An Active Learning Approach

Second Edition. — SAGE Publications, 2018. — 779 p. — ISBN: 9781483378732.The Second Edition takes a unique, active approach to teaching and learning introductory statistics that allows students to discover and correct their misunderstandings as chapters progress rather than at their conclusion. Empirically-developed, self-correcting activities reinforce and expand on fundamental concepts, targeting and holding students’ attention. Based on contemporary memory research, this learner-centered approach leads to better long-term retention through active engagement while generating explanations. Along with carefully placed reading questions, this edition includes learning objectives, realistic research scenarios, practice problems, self-test questions, problem sets, and practice tests to help students become more confident in their ability to perform statistics.Introduction to Statistics and Frequency Distributions
