Understanding Correlation

Drag the cursor on the bar to see how the correlation coefficient (r) relates to the spread of the data points on the graph.
Lab 5 Scatterplot and Correlation Coefficient Similar to the previous link.  Move cursor up and down over the column of  r values to see how the correlation coefficient relates to the spread of the data points on the graph and the regression line.
Lab 5 Guessing Correlations Test your understanding of correlations.  Match the correlation coefficient (r) with the correct graph.
Lab 6 What's a function? Use this page to review of the term "function."

Visualizing Polynomials

Use this link to view different types of polynomials.  Specifically, look at the effect of different degrees (or Order as in Excel).  Play around with the coefficients so see how they effect the curve. (not for examinations)
