Choices for AP stats course

I, too, have been using Rossman's Workshop Statistics with great delight. We use Moore's Basic Practice text as a supplement. In addition, I have assigned readings from Statistics, Friedman, Pisani, Purvis, et al, to deepen the students' conceptual understanding. We have presently used the TI-83 for all technology needs even though at times (simulation of 500 samples) it is quite time consuming. We will use Minitab when our district installs it on our new network. I have used Minitab and like it very much. Until it is installed on the network, I have been bringing print outs into class to speed the process up somewhat. The official Teacher's Guide for AP Stats will include my syllabus for the course using Rossman's text. You may wish to check that document out. If I can be of any further help, please let me know.
