This approach is exactly right, for it gives the learner the ability to play with the concepts. Statistics has traditionally forced people to grapple with the unusual vocabulary (greek letters etc.) and connect them with the ideas, which one had to "animate" in one's mind. Active engagement depended on constructing graphs in private so you could finally get what was being talked about. In contrast, the interactive graphic illustrations in this electronic book let you see the concepts and how they work by changing them with your own hands. This increases your feeling of engagement, and speeds up your understanding of the concepts.
