If you want to teach probability or statistics, take a look at Gelman's Teaching Statistics: A Bag Of Tricks. I've used material from there to good effect.

Edit: Maybe also take a look at better explained.

Edit2: Also Dunham's Journey Through Genius. Very inspiring and fun.

Yep!

Gelman discusses using this project to teach students about randomness in his book “Teachcing Statistics: A bag of tricks”: https://www.amazon.com/Teaching-Statistics-Tricks-Andrew-Gelman/dp/0198572247. Students misunderstand that random varies much more over the short term than they expect.

Not sure if the exercise is directly attributable to him, that’s where I first heard of it though.

There is a good book about teaching statistics by Andrew Gelman and Deborah Nolan: Teaching statistics: A Bag of Tricks.
