In this free online video program, "students will learn to derive and interpret the correlation coefficient using the relationship between a baseball player’s salary and his home run statistics." The students will then "discover how to use the square of the correlation coefficient to measure the strength and direction of a relationship between two variables. A study comparing identical twins raised together and apart illustrates the concept of correlation." This individual video is accessed by scrolling down to the "Individual Program Descriptions - 9.
