Lesson Outline
We picked up where we left off in Friday talking about correlation analysis. Jared had had some thoughts over the weekend regarding correlations. He wanted to talk about an article he had in his room regarding a survey correlating car models and whether their drivers are considered good or bad. This article was rife with dubious statistical conclusions, and Jared was very aware of those! We again touched upon the subject of (formal) logic, and how important valid - and sound - logical arguments are, not only in mathematical analyses but in all walks of life.

Lesson Comments
We are going to have to re-visit a more structured, formal lesson plan very soon, but for now it's so gratifying to have an attentive and cooperative Jared (especially considering his Algebra classes ...) I do feel that nevertheless Jared is learning about different things since I do slip in quite a bit of Statistics without him realizing.
