We describe examples based on real wind speed data designed to introduce engineering students at the post-calculus level to statistical methods and theory with real engineering problems. The examples cover some steps of the traditional wind power data analysis in order to develop in the student the data analysis capabilities and the statistical reasoning applied to the engineering problems.
