This IQP involved development of a set of interactive online exercises to engage students in self-paced learning about least squares and least absolute deviations regression methods. Development of these graphically-oriented Java and HTML-based exercises was guided by research into student learning and computer instruction. The exercises were validated by student responses to survey questions and to a test of comprehension and have been placed online at  http://www.math.wpi.edu/Course_Materials/SAS/lablets/7.3/73_choices.html.
