In this video, you are going to be introduced to statistics summaries about data and connect them with useful data visualisations: boxplots, histograms and dot plots. For that, we designed a wisdom-of-crowds experiment, a “guess how many shells in a vase” experiment, to illustrate various situations that can be raised when the real world is used as a source of data.

We encourage you to re-create a similar wisdom-of-crowds experiment by yourself: it's fun and very insightful.
