I'm thinking about writing some pieces each explaining one statistics concept in a way that makes sense so anyone who hasn't had much math since highschool.
I'd start with the binomial distribution and why it's important since that came up recently.
Others could be:
Relative risk
Sampling biases
Popular incorrect inferences
(Open to suggestions)
The goal would be that each piece can be read and understood on its own. Without reading a whole series.
Would that be of interest?
