[CTPP] Census Bureau releases ACS e-Tutorial

Dear CTPP data community -- You may be interested in reviewing the Census Bureau's foray into e-learning. I haven't had time to check it out, but we (the CTPP group) are hoping that they have done a good job at explaining margins of error and statistical significance, so that we don't have to cover similar concepts in our CTPP e-learning! If you have a chance to look at the CB's material, please let the CTPP listserv know what you think about it!
