  48. Maureen – FLOUR BLUFF ISD (verified owner)

    While this is great information, this instructor really needs to explain the difference between correlation and causality at the start, and continue to return to that concept throughout. Without a solid understanding of correlation and causality, a lot of misunderstanding could take place while listening to this lecture.
