Christian,

I thought this was a great way to grab the student's interest. Many may not be interested in the topic of statistics, however relating it to their normal everyday life was an excellent way to go about it. I think this video would serve well as an anticipatory set. Nice job!!

Great job relating the information the the students' lives. Also, you really planned this out well by introducing the broad topic first then going into the divisions of statistics. I found it to be entertaining even though math really bores me :/

This video utilized student's interests to hook them into the topic. It was very entertaining, but I would keep my mouth a few inches further from the microphone next time. All-in-all, good job.

Nice video, I thought you did a good job getting students attention early with the baseball stats and working from there.

This was a great lesson to give using a video. This helped me understand statistics more and how we use statistics in everyday life. Using the real life images really keeps the viewers interested and remain on topic. Great job!

Great video... The sound was a little on and off but taught the topic well.
