This points not only to a need of avoiding a too narrow focus in statistics education, but also to a need of knowing more about the interplay of these three variables when learners make sense of statistics about society. The poster presents a corresponding relationship model which suggests that the statistical thinking necessary for understanding statistics about society is supported by critical thinking and knowledge/views about the context. However, evidence about the interplay of the three factors in the model is scarce. In particular, when being confronted with representations of data about society and having to make sense of it, does critical thinking and context knowledge always play a supporting role or can they on the contrary even impede statistical thinking?","PeriodicalId":165958,"journal":{"name":"Promoting Understanding of Statistics about Society IASE Roundtable Conference","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123407519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The suggestion is part of a series of initiatives conducted by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (Istat) to promote statistical literacy among young people. Students are required to reflect about well-being concepts, to operationalize well- being dimensions, to analyse and interpret well-being data, and to verbalise their statistical analysis. Data sets come from the Istat’s “Report on equitable and sustainable well-being” (BES) and contains over one hundred indicators concerning the fundamental dimensions of well-being and progress in Italy and its territories. Retracing the path to define and measure well-being, students become familiar with these issues and using real data they anchor the learning process to everyday life.","PeriodicalId":165958,"journal":{"name":"Promoting Understanding of Statistics about Society IASE Roundtable Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115667282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As many students do not have the necessary foundations of mathematical and statistical knowledge and skills, the interventions are intended to provide 'foundations' in terms of quantitative literacy. Since quantitative literacy is a practice embedded in the disciplinary practices, this intervention has been integrated into the disciplinary curriculum. While this supports the argument that students motivation to engage with a context-driven curriculum is dependent on their interest in and perception of the relevance of the content and context used, the intervention could be enhanced by being more explicit in clarifying the distinctions between the disciplinary contexts and the mathematical and statistical content, as well integrating technology into the curriculum and creating opportunities for students to become involved in data collection on small research projects.","PeriodicalId":165958,"journal":{"name":"Promoting Understanding of Statistics about Society IASE Roundtable Conference","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114414941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The samples in IPUMS are drawn from the very data source used to create official statistics by each country for policy and planning purposes. In partnership with most of the world’s national statistical agencies, as well as data archives, research centers, and international organizations, IPUMS International has assembled the most comprehensive collection of census microdata in the world (Figure 1). The microdata records describe more than one-half billion persons nested within families and households, spanning five continents and more than 80 percent of the world's population (Appendix A). IPUMS-International lowers barriers to cross-national and cross-temporal research and teaching by converting international census microdata to a uniform format, providing comprehensive documentation, and making custom downloadable data files available through a user-friendly Web-based access system.","PeriodicalId":165958,"journal":{"name":"Promoting Understanding of Statistics about Society IASE Roundtable Conference","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126862626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Offical youth statistics and data from various surveys about the youth were used to provide the database for teaching-learning and assessment activities that build students’ conceptual understanding of random variables, probability and sampling distributions, the Central Limit Theorem, and the inferential methods of parameter estimation and hypothesis testing. With the twin goal of promoting statistical literacy and understanding the dynamics of the youth population, the activities provide the learners the opportunity to raise their social consciousness on the vital role of the youth sector in society. This paper describes some of these activities and their databases.","PeriodicalId":165958,"journal":{"name":"Promoting Understanding of Statistics about Society IASE Roundtable Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130230496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
