That's Weird!: Exploring Everyday Events through a Statistical Inquiry Lens (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798994938300)

That's Weird! invites readers to look at everyday moments and ask a powerful question: Is this really unusual, or could it happen by chance? Through a fun, relatable storyline, readers are introduced to the core ideas of statistical inquiry as they investigate surprising events from daily life. Along the way, readers learn how statisticians decide what counts as "weird" by thinking about how likely an outcome is, how much data they have, and what they expect to see in the first place. Big ideas, like evidence, chance, and sample size, emerge naturally from the story, building on students' intuition rather than formal formulas. That's Weird! shows that statistics isn't just about numbers - it's a way of making sense of the world.
