Usually econometrics is taught math first: "Here's a nice statistical model, here are its formal properties, and here are a few applications of it." When I teach, I start with a substantive question and then ask if we can answer it with the methods already know. If not, we develop a new method that can. This approach works a lot better for people that care more about the real world than pure math.

The videos posted here don't all individually follow this approach, but they can be dropped into a class that does. Think of this is a place for regular people to learn some statistics and econometrics.
