• Instructors teaching any college statistics course hold to a standard practice of assigning homework, grading it, and returning it to students with some form of feedback. However, with a course as difficult, intimidating, or as intense as statistics, students often need help from the instructor during non-office hours. Large class sizes often exacerbate the problem, making the instructor's timely completion of grading even more daunting. The authors explore problems associated with the teaching of statistics using a homework web site in an effort to report on an evolving solution to a teaching and learning problem.
