Lesson 4.3 (EFFL Version) - Experimental Design

Note: This lesson is part of a collaborative series between Stats Medic and Skew The Script. We admire the “Experience First, Formalize Later” (EFFL) structure of Stats Medic lessons and are working with them to provide EFFL versions of our material. This lesson covers many of the same learning objectives and relevant topics as Skew The Script’s original 4.3 lesson, but in an EFFL format. More info below.
