Abstract: The sole purpose of this paper is to guide students in learning the introductory statistical concepts such as- probability distribution and the central limit theorem (CLT) in an intuitive approach through an interactive tool. When a used data has different probability distributions, this paper intends to clarify the notions of the CLT and the use of samples in the hypothesis testing of a population by demonstrating step-by-step procedures and hands-on simulation approach. This paper discusses the relationship between the sample size and the nature of the sampling distribution, which is a vital element of the CLT, in different population distribution using the developed interactive tool. Finally, the impact of the developed interactive tool is measured via a survey experiment that illustrated the success of the developed tool in teaching the CLT.
