Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data

Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data

These videos were created for our short online course, Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data. This course ran from 2017 to 2023 on edX. While the full content of the course is no longer available, we have made the videos from the course free and open so you can work through the resources in your own time.

This collection of high-quality media resources has been made available under Creative Commons licence for sharing, reuse and remixing.

Please note that the videos are representative of the views and research at the time of recording.

The videos in this playlist introduce some of the key ideas and concepts of statistics, the discipline that allows us to analyse and interpret the data that underpins modern society. You will explore the key principles of statistics for yourself, using interactive applets, and you will learn to interpret and evaluate the data you encounter in everyday life.  No previous knowledge of statistics is required, although familiarity with secondary school mathematics is advisable.
