History of Data Science's Regression Game

 There are already some pretty cool games for guessing linear relationships/regression lines. Dr. Hill's Eyeball Regression Game. The old, reliable Guess the Correlation game.

However, I found a new one that has a particularly gorgeous interface, and a few extra features to help your learners.

History of Data Science created the Regression game. It provides the player with a scatter plot, then the player needs to guess the y-intercept and slope.


See that regression line? It is generated and changes as the entered a and b values change, which is a good learning tool. If played at the "easy-peasy" level, the player can even change those numbers multiple times over the course of 30 seconds, and watch as the corresponding line changes. 



I think this game is a nice way to break up the ol' regression lecture and allows students to see the relationship between the scatter plot and the regression line.
