BerkeleyX edX courses
Posted January 12, 2013 By Landis Vhttps://www.edx.org/courses/BerkeleyX/Stat2.1x/2013_Spring/about – Introduction to Statistics: Descriptive Statistics

Ran across these while looking at Scratch as something my kids might be interested in at some point. I’ve always wanted to take a statistics course… this might be just the opportunity I have been looking for (if I can find the time 🙁 )
