National Puzzle Day 🧩🤔is Sunday. To celebrate, I used @diffitapp.bsky.social to create a Simpson's Paradox Mystery. We turned a complex #StatsChat concept into a task that challenges everything you think you know about averages. #DiffitAmbassador #MTBoS #iTeachMath tinyurl.com/35bvhjc9 #EduSky
Teacher-to-teacher tip: Don’t let formatting steal your prep time. 🤝💬🌟 My favorite @diffitapp.bsky.social use case this week? Generating scaffolded practice sets for #StatsChat #DiffitAmbassador #ITeachMath #MTBoS #EduSky
Tomorrow is the first day of spring. To celebrate, I used @diffitapp.bsky.social to create a Springing Into Linearity activity for taking curved scatterplots and straightening them out. 🌷📈#DiffitAmbassador #StatsChat #MTBoS #iTeachMath tinyurl.com/yftdep35 #EduSky
♻️ Tomorrow is #GlobalRecyclingDay, I used @diffitapp.bsky.social to create an activity for Ss to analyze 'wish-cycling' data. We're running Chi-square tests to see if our school's habits match the city's green goals. #DiffitAmbassador #StatsChat #MTBoS #iTeachMath #EduSky tinyurl.com/2athbbt6
Bringing some luck of the Irish to Unit 4 Statistics tomorrow! 🍀I used @diffitapp.bsky.social to build this Lucky Probability Review Scavenger Hunt. It covers probability and random variables #DiffitAmbassador #StatsChat tinyurl.com/mvvs4rcw #MTBoS #iTeachMath #EduSky
A histogram of trick or treaters in 10 minute intervals.
Halloween Histogram 2025. The rain stopped this evening and we had the temperature stayed pleasant (13C-ish). 175 trick-or-treaters visited the house... about the same as last year. #HalloweenHistogram #MathOrTreat #StatsChat #ITeachMath
Random sampling > voluntary response sampling (although I don't know why this would be more important when surveying young adults).

I ask this question every few months and no one ever has a good answer for me. #statschat #iteachmath
I ran across this interesting FREE resource on intensive longitudinal methods today. centerstat.org/apa-ild/

Some favorites from the end of semester AP Stats projects. Students chose their own statistical questions to collect data and analyze. And nothing better than a positive review from a student 😁 #mtbos #iteachmath #statschat
HELP: There must exist a @desmos.com interactive that has 1) a very small data set, 2) the option to drag a line to fit the points, and 3) a visual display of the total residual and/or the total squared residual.
Someone point me to it? I can't find one like this.

PROPOSAL: average deviation from the median as a measure of variability.
What do you think? #iteachmath #statschat #edusky
"The Washington Capitals power play of the mid-2010s shouldn't be memorable- So why is it still talked about?"
Read about the #ALLCAPS powerplay breakdown in our newest #StatsChat article:
Percentiles in the wild.
How would students interpret this?

Can anyone recommend a good Intro #Probability text? Preferably one that doesn't introduce measure theory. #statschat #statistics
Just trying to help out the elementary #stats students out there! A Quick Look of Confidence Intervals (Sample Mean) https://youtu.be/FVSJ_0qRlVU via @YouTube

Students built the normal curve by rolling dice today. Pretty fun experiment. #statschat #stats #math #mathed
Planning for the semester (with chances of going virtual) has me choosing between a proof based and a Mathematica based project for Stats & Prob. Any thoughts? #statschat #Statistics
Any possibilities to quantify the skewness of residuals in lmer models? I've been using qqmath plots but I have 0% confidence in my ability to pick between some of these models by eye... #Rstats #statschat #lmer
