2010 update on studies related to on-line statistics course: https://oli.web.cmu.edu/openlearning/forstudents/freecourses/statistics Marsha Lovett, Oded Meyer and Candace Thille

I found the OLI Statistics course about 2 years ago. I then used the online course along with a once per week f2f meeting in a course for 5 high school students. The students used the OLI online system to learn and practice the statistical concepts. We used the f2f meetings to discuss and resolve misconceptions, deepen their understanding of the recently learned concepts and to have fun with statistics. We extended the course over a whole year. The course was a great success. I'm a big advocate of hybrid courses, because it puts responsibility for learning with the student, and he/she feels accountable for getting everything done in time for the f2f meeting--the student is responsible for independent learning and the teacher is there to help mentor and guide.

very comprehensive
