A Story-based Simulation for Teaching Sampling Distributions Academic Article

abstract

• 2014 Teaching Statistics Trust. Statistical inference relies heavily on the concept of sampling distributions. However, sampling distributions are difficult to teach. We present a series of short animations that are story-based, with associated assessments. We hope that our contribution can be useful as a tool to teach sampling distributions in the introductory statistics classroom.
