Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data

Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data

From the University of Edinburgh School of Mathematics

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.  

These videos are free open resources originally created for the short course, Statistics: Unlocking the World of Data:
