Title: Regression Hoochie Koo: Using Music to Reinforce Regression Concepts
Author(s): Steven Patch*
Companies: The University of North Carolina at Asheville
Keywords: regression ; review ; music
Abstract:

The song Regression Hoochie Koo is designed to review the main concepts in simple linear regression. There is an accompanying visual presentation that illustrates the principles discussed in the song. It is hoped that by using music and humor the ideas behind regression can be made more memorable for students. The song and visual presentation can be used in a review of regression concepts in either an introductory statistics class or a more advanced undergraduate class on regression. In this presentation, the song will be performed along with the visual presentation.
