Abstract

Typically, training in Russia for professionals includes school, university, and postgraduate education. People make their choice regarding university or job after school, and they choose jobs after university. These are very sensitive matters. Help in making the right choice is a real asset. The Russian Association of Statisticians (RASt) is an independent, non-profit organisation that does not provide statistical education as a university and does not collect and process data as a statistical institution. But RASt helps students, universities, and producers of statistical data find each other. The paper describes the activities of RASt which organises the school competition in statistics called “Trend” to support students in choosing a profession and the kick-off competition “Career” for university students to help them get to know their employers. The organisers of the competition for school children usually face a number of problems related to the young age of participants and to limited funding. If we are talking about such a country as huge as Russia, the problems increase. To solve these problems, organisers use a combination of competition of presentations about original statistical researches provided by school teams in regions and an online quiz on statistical topics at the final stage. Technologically, the entire process is supported by ROSSTAT with its IT network. The organisers hope that the competition will make the profession of statistician more popular in Russia and attract more students to statistical programmes in universities.

俄罗斯统计学家协会：填补教育链中的空白

通常，在俄罗斯，专业人员的培训包括学校、大学和研究生教育。人们在大学或毕业后选择工作，他们在大学后选择工作。这些都是非常敏感的问题。帮助做出正确的选择是一笔真正的财富。俄罗斯统计学家协会是一个独立的非营利组织，不作为大学提供统计教育，也不作为统计机构收集和处理数据。但是RASt可以帮助学生、大学和统计数据的生产者找到彼此。本文介绍了RASt的活动，该组织组织了名为“趋势”的学校统计竞赛，以支持学生选择职业，并为大学生组织了“职业”启动竞赛，以帮助他们了解雇主。学校儿童竞赛的组织者通常面临许多与参赛者年龄小和资金有限有关的问题。如果我们谈论的是俄罗斯这样一个大国，问题就会增加。为了解决这些问题，组织者结合了各地区学校团队提供的关于原始统计研究的演讲比赛和最后阶段的统计主题在线测验。从技术上讲，整个过程都由ROSSTAT及其IT网络提供支持。组织者希望这场比赛能让统计学家这一职业在俄罗斯更受欢迎，并吸引更多的学生参加大学的统计课程。2020年2月首次发表于《统计教育研究期刊档案》

期刊介绍： SERJ is a peer-reviewed electronic journal of the International Association for Statistical Education (IASE) and the International Statistical Institute (ISI). SERJ is published twice a year and is free. SERJ aims to advance research-based knowledge that can help to improve the teaching, learning, and understanding of statistics or probability at all educational levels and in both formal (classroom-based) and informal (out-of-classroom) contexts. Such research may examine, for example, cognitive, motivational, attitudinal, curricular, teaching-related, technology-related, organizational, or societal factors and processes that are related to the development and understanding of stochastic knowledge. In addition, research may focus on how people use or apply statistical and probabilistic information and ideas, broadly viewed. The Journal encourages the submission of quality papers related to the above goals, such as reports of original research (both quantitative and qualitative), integrative and critical reviews of research literature, analyses of research-based theoretical and methodological models, and other types of papers described in full in the Guidelines for Authors. All papers are reviewed internally by an Associate Editor or Editor, and are blind-reviewed by at least two external referees. Contributions in English are recommended. Contributions in French and Spanish will also be considered. A submitted paper must not have been published before or be under consideration for publication elsewhere.
