Introduction to Statistics - MASSOLIT (Statistics I - AQA GCSE 8300: Foundation Tier)

This is a curriculum-linked video lecture from MASSOLIT titled 'Introduction to Statistics', delivered by Dr Craig Anderson (University of Glasgow) as part of the Statistics I - AQA GCSE (8300) Foundation Tier course. The mini-lecture introduces what statistics is and how it is used, discusses real-world applications (for example, healthcare, air quality and flooding), and reviews historical examples such as John Snow's 1854 cholera diagram.

It explains primary vs secondary data, qualitative vs quantitative data, and the two types of quantitative data (discrete and continuous). The broader course covers Topics S1, S2 and S5 of the AQA GCSE Foundation specification, including populations and sampling, frequency tables and graphs, bar charts, pictograms, pie charts and line charts.
