Muestreo e intervalos de confianza en español: 9 videos CC BY y 4 conjuntos de datos abiertos, con lagunas claras
Interpretation: Introductory statistics (sampling, sampling distributions, confidence intervals, margin of error) for mixed-ability high school students aged 15 to 17, in Spanish, 50-minute classes. Videos and datasets only. Licence filter: CC BY or CC0 only, so BY-SA, NC and unlicensed items were excluded. All pages were accessed on 6 October 2026.
How I checked licences: For the YouTube videos I opened each watch page in the browser and read the licence line, which showed "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" for all nine. YouTube's CC option is the CC BY licence. I did not watch the videos, and I did not capture upload dates, so level fit is my judgement from title, channel and length. Preview every video before class.
Shortlist (ordered by usefulness for this class)
| Title (with link) | Provider | Format | Level fit | Language | License (exact) | Length | Fit notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Introducción a Distribución muestral de Medias con reemplazo | Alianza B@UNAM, CCH & ENP (YouTube channel) | Video | Good: appears aimed at pre-university students (channel name; unverified) | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 9:28 (YouTube search listing) | Best opener for sampling distributions. Pause after the first example and have students draw their own samples. |
| Explicación con Excel del Teorema del Límite Central | Alianza B@UNAM, CCH & ENP | Video | Good: spreadsheet demo suits mixed ability | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 5:31 | Short enough for a 10-minute starter. Pair with the TeensLab data below so students repeat the demo. |
| Muestreo e Inferencia 01 Muestras | Pepe Álvarez (YouTube channel) | Video | Adapt: likely university style; check pace | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 12:33 | Covers samples versus populations. Use only the first part with younger or weaker groups. |
| Tipos de Muestreo estadístico | Patricia Rodríguez (YouTube channel) | Video | Good: short, one topic | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 7:49 | Sampling methods (random, stratified and so on). Good for a sorting activity afterwards. |
| Intervalos de confianza (cálculo) | Luis Medina Gual (YouTube channel) | Video | Stretch: calculation focus; scaffold with a worked example first | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 10:33 | Core confidence-interval video. Show in two halves with practice between. |
| Tema 2 ejercicio 5: tamaño muestral e intervalo de confianza para una proporción | Estadística UVa (YouTube channel) | Video | Stretch: worked university exercise | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 3:27 | Links sample size and a proportion interval. Use as a worked-example model for stronger students. |
| Encuestas electorales. ¿Les creemos? | Hanwen Zhang (YouTube channel) | Video | Good: real-world hook; check content first | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 15:53 | Possible margin-of-error context. I did not confirm it explains margin of error; preview and use a segment. Election topic: keep discussion non-partisan. |
| Teorema del límite central - Continua - Probabilidad y Estadística | Mildred Castillo (YouTube channel) | Video | Stretch: formal wording likely | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 5:17 | Second option on the CLT for advanced students. |
| Inferencia Estadistica: 04 Intervalo de confianza para la media | Pepe Álvarez (YouTube channel) | Video | Stretch: 14:44, likely university level | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" | 14:44 | Extension only. Too long for one class segment without a break. |
| TeensLab dataset (Zenodo) | TeensLab consortium (Spain), on Zenodo | Dataset | Good: real teenage data; treat it as a "population" and draw samples | Spanish students; record page and description in English | "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International" (record page); "This article is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) 4.0 International License." | 5,890 observations from 33 centres, ages 10 to 23; CSV 3.4 MB | Best dataset here. Filter to ages 15 to 17 before use. Check the "Variables description.pdf" on the record, and confirm no identifying fields before sharing with students. Documentation is in English. |
| Aprender 2022, Secundaria 5-6 año, Agregada, Solo CC | Secretaría de Educación, Argentina (datos.gob.ar) | Dataset | Adapt: aggregated school-level results; contextual questionnaire | Spanish | "Licencia Creative Commons Attribution 4.0" | CSV; row count and file size not stated on the page | The page labels this file "Censal" (census-style). Useful for drawing samples of schools and comparing sample means to the full file. Data last updated 15 July 2025 (page). Dictionary and methodology are linked on the same dataset page. |
| Tasas según tipo, grupo de edad y sexo (Aragón Open Data) | Instituto Aragonés de Estadística | Dataset | Adapt: percentages from the national labour-force survey (EPA), not raw rows | Spanish | "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0" | PC-Axis (.px) and HTML table; size not stated | Source data are sample-survey based ("Datos estadísticos muestrales"). Good for discussing why published rates carry sampling error. Not suitable for drawing samples. Data dictionary linked on the page. |
| Encuesta anual de hogares (Buenos Aires Data) | Dirección General de Estadística y Censos, Ciudad de Buenos Aires | Dataset | Stretch: household survey, many variables | Spanish | "CC-BY-2.5-AR" | File formats, sizes and row counts not confirmed | Page shows updated 21 April 2026. Check the user-base files for personal data and the weighting notes before classroom use. |
Gaps and best starting point
The biggest gap is a complete, school-level Spanish unit under CC BY. I did not check Khan Academy en español or other Spanish course series in this run, so I cannot say whether any meets your licence limit. Also missing: any CC BY video I could confirm teaches margin of error directly at secondary level, and any interactive resampling demo (the brief excluded simulations anyway). The video list is YouTube-channel based: licences are per upload and the uploaders are mostly individual teachers or university units, so the level fit is the weakest part of this list.
Start with Introducción a Distribución muestral de Medias con reemplazo followed by the TeensLab dataset: the video gives the idea of repeated samples, and the dataset lets students do it themselves with real teenage data.
Do next
- Preview each video for 2 to 3 minutes at the start, middle and end. I judged level from titles and lengths only.
- Download TeensLab's CSV and the variables PDF, filter ages 15 to 17, and check the columns for anything identifying before showing it to students.
- Prepare attribution text. CC BY needs credit to the creator, a link to the licence and a note of any changes. For videos, link rather than re-host.
- Plan one 50-minute lesson as: 10-minute video segment, 25 minutes drawing samples from the dataset and computing means, 15 minutes on what changes with larger samples. (My suggested structure, not from a source.)
Near misses
- PR6. 3.1. Intervalos de confianza (EducaMadrid Mediateca): Spanish, 10:43, bachillerato level, but licence is "Reconocimiento - Compartir igual" (BY-SA), not plain CC BY.
- Intervalo de confianza para la media de una Normal con varianza conocida (Universitat de València): licence "Reconocimiento-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 3.0 España (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 ES)", excluded for NC.
- INE legal notice: the INE site footer states "CC BY-SA 4.0", so Spanish national statistics microdata from INE were not shortlisted.
- Kaggle: Estudiantes: licence field reads "Data files © Original Authors", not open.
- Kaggle: Educacion Dataset: licence "Unknown".
- Zenodo: Cuestionario sobre IA generativa: CC BY 4.0 but access listed as "Restricted".
- Zenodo: Students perception on wellbeing: CC BY 4.0, Spanish, but only 92 students in a 9.7 kB SPSS (.sav) file, too small and in a format that needs conversion.
- Madrid youth drug-use indicators, ages 15 to 16 (datos.gob.es): licence is the CC BY 4.0 legal code link, CSV 57.82 KB, but the topic is sensitive for minors and the file holds indicators, not raw rows.
- Catálogo de Datos Abiertos Uruguay, student platform activity: licence listed as "Licencia de DAG de Uruguay", not CC BY.
Coverage note
I could not reach video lists from Khan Academy en español, Wikimedia Commons, OER Commons, MERLOT or ministry repositories in this run, so they were not searched in depth. Video upload dates were not captured. YouTube licence lines, the Zenodo, Kaggle and Buenos Aires details came from live browser reads that were not saved as evidence files, so re-check the licence line on each page before use (an independent spot-check confirmed two of the nine YouTube pages only partially). YouTube durations come from search listings and I did not play the videos. Dataset row counts were confirmed only for TeensLab. Licence readings are not legal advice; confirm terms before commercial reuse.
