Data Collection and Sampling, from the Hobart Mercury newspaper.
A hands-on introduction to simple random samples and the importance of sample size. The worksheet containing the JellyBlubbers population may be useful for hypothesis testing as well.
Note that this worksheet is in Word 6.0 format as I haven't been able to convert the graphic to Word 2.0 format (yet).
The STEPS modules are a collection of hypertext-based tutorials covering a wide range of statistics topics, including simple random samples and the distribution of sample means. Visit the STEPS page for further information and a list of the modules available.
A website containing a collection of articles from the Hobart Mercury newspaper that illustrate both good and poor methods of sampling from a population.
