This paper describes the process of development and evaluation of an open educational resource (OER) e-module on the Central Limit Theorem written for an Introductory Statistics college-level course. The purpose of this project is two-fold. First, the e-module bridges the knowledge gap between introductory topics and Hypothesis Testing – one of the most challenging concepts in Statistics. Second, the project focuses on developing tools that allow instructors to analyze the effectiveness of the module and reveal student patterns of interaction with the platform. The overall goal of the project is to improve the quality of open educational resources, provide students/instructors with additional study materials in response to rising cost for textbooks and higher education, and provide more data for further research on student behavior while interacting with e-textbooks. The interactive e-module was developed using LaTeX markup language and Overleaf editor, uploaded to the XIMERA platform and tested on two sections of MTH 140, a college-level Statistics course. Once the experiment has been performed and the data collected, the results were analyzed using Python programming language. As a result of the study, some tools for analysis of user data have been developed, and an OER has been created.
