Abstract: This research proposal investigates whether watching screencasts or reading textbooks are more effective for learning statistical concepts. Using a within-subjects design, undergraduates will complete content quizzes following each learning modality. Results will inform pre-class preparation strategies. Broader implications for classroom and professional statistical training will be explored.
