Gordon, Sheldon P.; Gordon, Florence S. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2019
This article illustrates ways that dynamic software using some sophisticated techniques in Excel can be used to demonstrate fundamental ideas related to sampling distributions and their properties to increase student understanding of the concepts and methods in elementary statistics courses. The article considers such sampling distributions as the…

Gordon, Sheldon P.; Gordon, Florence S. – PRIMUS, 2009
The authors describe a collection of dynamic interactive simulations for teaching and learning most of the important ideas and techniques of introductory statistics and probability. The modules cover such topics as randomness, simulations of probability experiments such as coin flipping, dice rolling and general binomial experiments, a simulation…
