Two public Universities were purposively selected for the investigation. A survey was conducted following both qualitative and quantitative paradigms. Interviews and documentary analysis were conducted. And six administrators and 60 graduates were interviewed. The data were analysed using constant comparative analysis to categorise the type of information that arose from interviews and documents. The institutions taught different statistics content to their undergraduates. Some statistics techniques used by graduates in the workplace were not taught while others were taught but not applied in the workplace. The content taught is not perfectly aligned to the needs of the workplace. The implication of the study is the need to align statistics content for the workplace and to prepare graduates appropriately for employment. Graduates need techniques that are tailed to either industry or to schools. Educational implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":170012,"journal":{"name":"Next Steps in Statistics Education Precedings IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132130556","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}

CensusAtSchool, GAISE, CAUSE projects and Statistics New Zealand SURFs also provide data for investigation in middle school and beyond. To motivate students further, real data from current research should be used in the classroom to help take statistics training to the next level. Such data are described. Eleven research projects are presented in DVDs with matching data provided on CDs. Context is outlined, study design and data collection are discussed, and proposals are made for analyses to answer questions. The DVDs, developed for use in 2009, feature illustrated researcher talks. The DVDs and CDs are also available for viewing on the web. A range of studies are described along with tasks to be carried out. Feedback from school teachers and students on relevance of this resource will be discussed.","PeriodicalId":170012,"journal":{"name":"Next Steps in Statistics Education Precedings IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115523207","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}

Obispo","doi":"10.52041/srap.09103","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.52041/srap.09103","url":null,"abstract":"In the last decade, statistics and data analysis have become a more visible component of the secondary school mathematics curriculum in the United States. In most cases, statistics and data analysis topics have been divided up and spread through the mathematics curriculum. However, many important concepts of statistics are not mathematical in nature and are not easily integrated into existing mathematics courses. As a consequence, most students complete their secondary education having seen a number of graphical and numerical statistical methods but having not encountered many key concepts required for mature statistical reasoning. Recognizing that the addition of a separate statistics course to the secondary curriculum is unlikely, an alternate approach is proposed. With support from the American Statistical Association (ASA) and the ASA/NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) Joint Committee on Probability and Statistics in the K-12 Curriculum, a capstone experience for secondary students has been designed. Making Sense of Statistical Studies is a coordinated and coherent set of case studies that can be integrated into mathematics courses to provide students with an understanding of the data analysis process and help them develop the conceptual understanding that provides the foundation for statistical reasoning. This paper contributes to the conference topic of curricular materials and tools for improving students’ learning at school level.","PeriodicalId":170012,"journal":{"name":"Next Steps in Statistics Education Precedings IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115771192","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}

This means that the students believe that they will get a comprehensive statistical toolbox for solving a variety of real life problems after graduation. But can they use the tools in a complex reality? The aim is to present the use of inter-disciplinary statistical problem solving courses for introducing the complexity of reality to statistics students before graduation. Experiences of the discordance between students’ theoretical and practical skills regarding statistical description, analysis and understanding will be given.","PeriodicalId":170012,"journal":{"name":"Next Steps in Statistics Education Precedings IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"5 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129722962","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}

Teaching in the information age requires that you apply and use technology in an attempt to accommodate these new requirements. Gone are the days that you only talk-and-chalk or flip slides on the overhead projector. But, beware of teaching with all the bells-and-whistles and failing to facilitate real learning. In this presentation I would like to share my experiences of teaching large, culturally diverse groups using technology but sticking to the sound principles of teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":170012,"journal":{"name":"Next Steps in Statistics Education Precedings IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121408898","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}
