This video discusses sampling in the context of how estimates of population parameters are obtained. It refers to the What Is an Average? (https://mediaplayer.pearsoncmg.com/assets/c3dff2uqYF16bKHTZsX1w4GTAiabmr1B) video, where they obtained an “average of 1.89 feet per person” using a sample of a group of playground-bound kids plus a one-legged man who was asked to show up. They concluded that the sample was a bad one and that random sampling would be a better way of obtaining a representative sample to be confident that the sample statistic is a good estimate of the population parameter.
