Xkcd is a gift to Statisitcs instructors . Author Randall Monroe shares his humor and statistics knowledge. I think that many of his comics can be used as extra credit points , in that you don't get the joke unless you get the conceptual statistical knowledge behind the joke.

This resource from UCLA is , essentially, a decision making tree for determining what kind of statistical analysis is appropriate based upon your data (see below). Screen shot from "What statistical analysis should I use?" Now, such decision making trees are available in many statistics text book...however... what makes this special is the fact that with each test comes code/syntax as well as output for SAS, Stata, SPSS, and R. Which is helpful to our students (and, let's be honest, us instructors/researchers as well).
