Goals of this project:

  • Target audience are stats students
  • Webapp worthy
  • Easy to update
  • Created in GitHub so it can easily evolve into an open-source project
  • Include flowchart format
  • Made in such a way that user can understand and test assumptions without leaving main flow
  • Distinction between: fork-in-road page, statistical test page, biography page
  • Interesting (tangential) info includes biography pages and descriptors of concepts such as interactives, videos, and other cool resources

Fork-in-road page: - Follows simple two (or more) option question format - Accordions info on how to test for (or answer) question - Links to interesting (but tangential) info

Statistical test page: - Explains use of test with info on how to compute (ideally by hand, but also in stats programs) - Reiterates assumptions with accordions to understand how to test for each assumption - Links to interesting (but tangential) info

Future components:

  • Include spatial stats concepts
  • Fill in survival analysis branch
  • Fill in prediction branch
  • Include better math symobolization
  • Include links (where appropriate) within content
