Here are some ideas for your pin (post) to get you started:

Find a short video or article about variability or one of the measures of central tendency. Share the link to your source and a short summary of the source. Include why you found the resource helpful to your understanding.

Discuss an area of statistics mentioned in Chapter 3 or 4 of the textbook that stood out to you. Why did this information catch your attention? How do you think you could use this information?

Find an article about behavioral neuroscience in the popular press (such as The New York Times, CNN, Psychology Today). Share a link to your source and a short summary of the source. Also, discuss why the article made the news and why it is important.

Find a video about a concept from the text you found difficult or confusing. Share the link and a short summary. Also, share what stood out to you the most or surprised you.
