The last one is by far the best interpretation.
\n" ); document.write( "CI are about parameters, not samples. The value in the sample you know. We don't use \"chance\" but rather confidence.
\n" ); document.write( "The first one uses confidence, but a randomly selected student either does or doesn't take notes and that is a dichotomous 0/1 probability, not an interval.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
