Against all Odds: Inside Statistics

https://archive.org/details/against-all-odds-01-what-is-statistics

I can remember in the 1990s when I first started getting on the internet I went on the Annenberg/CPB web site and entered a drawing.  And I actually won.  I was able to pick out a video course from Annenberg/CPB.  This was on VHS tapes, a boxed set of educational programs.  I chose: Against All Odds: Inside Statistics.  I had seen this program on WYCC channel 20 when I lived in the Chicago area and thought it was well done.  I was a QA engineer at GTE but never really quite understood statistics.  I remember going through a course at GTE but I didn't see how it was useful for testing digital things where it's about pass/fail - the course was aimed at physical measurements of a population of items.


The only criticism that I have of Against all Odds is that Dr. Amabile moves her head too much, it's distracting - I suppose some movement is good, no one wants to view "Clutch Cargo lips" but still :)
the only animation on Clutch Cargo were the lips of the characters



One thing I didn't ever have was the companion guide book:

I am going to have to re-watch these online since I don't think the old VHS even works with the digital TV :)
