Sports Scenarios
Statistics · 1 lab liveReal statistical tests dressed up in sports questions students actually care about. Same math as the textbook — better motivation.
The Cincinnati Reds Z-Test Lab
Students work in the Reds front office, comparing a sample of team data against league-wide averages. One question — is the gap real, or just luck of the draw — asked three times, once for each tail of the test. Built on Kolb’s experiential cycle: experience a finished test, finish a half-built one, put the logic in their own words, then build one from scratch.
