There are days when you just want to learn about Bayes' theorem. Viewers watch an engaging YouTube video to see how Bayes' theorem connects to conditional probability. They explore how Bayesian statistics differ from frequentist...

Another way to organize data beyond the stem and leaf plot - the histogram - is the focus of this lesson. Sal's objective is to not only introduce viewers to these methods of organization, but to make them simple and familiar; allowing...
