Fundamentals of Statistical Reasoning in Education

by Theodore Coladarci, Edward W. Minium, Casey D. Cobb

The original introductory statistics textbook written specifically for the discipline of education. Typically, education professors had to select from textbooks that were directed at "the behavioral sciences" or, at best, "psychology and education." While many of these texts are technically and conceptually adequate, the examples, problems, and applications are of little relevance to the reality of schools and, therefore, to the interests and concerns of education students. This text was designed to fill the void. Includes a CD.

So, our class only got to like Chapter 11 in the semester, but that was enough for me and my math career forever (I hope). What this book does well: If you take the time to read the very lengthy explanations, it's pretty straight forward when you get the hang of it. What it sucks at: Following its own teachings. This book does not round or set ranges the way advised in the text, which is super frustrating for someone who just wants to be told what to do in math.
