The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is planning to put the user at the centre by giving to them a chance to speak directly with our data. Our catch cry has become ‘freedom to share data will make data more valuable – but only if it’s managed differently.’ The ABS mission is “We assist and encourage informed decision-making, research and discussion within governments and the community, by providing a high quality, objective and responsive national statistical service.” Informed decision making presupposes a level of statistical ability which we know needs development within the Australian community. The ABS has an important leadership role in improving the statistical capability and literacy of our current and future customers. Our statistical output and communication strategy is vital to achieve the aspirational goal of a citizenry that uses statistics to make sensible, informed decisions, whatever their job, community or situation. This paper outlines some aspects of the ABS output and communication strategy, how it has changed and how the strategy increasingly supports a diverse range of customers and their requirements. The paper finishes by examining a range of innovative ABS outputs that have a stronger focus on building statistical capability in communities with lower statistical literacy, such as our youth community.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114780239","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}

Motivation and integration are keywords of teaching statistics to students who are not primarily interested in statistics. The motivation is based on illustrative problems, questions or examples of the field and real life that can be solved, answered or better understood with the study of the respective statistical content(s). Recently published scientific papers are used as didactic material. In general, the integration occurs throughout the following steps: explaining abstract statistical concepts and methods; applying concepts and methods to the example given as motivation; doing tutorial data analyses with statistical software; replicating data analyses and solving research problems with real data. The pedagogic methodology is based on the mixed uses of lectures and student centered activities. The didactic method exposed allows students an early practice of scientific activities.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131468427","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}

A single format must motivate students, provide detail and also be suitable for revision and later reference. It must also cope with students from different application areas and whose courses teach different topics. E-books have the potential to overcome most of these problems and some solutions are presented and illustrated with features added to CAST (Computer Assisted Statistics Textbooks) during its development. CAST started life as a single e-book whose initial goals were to use interactive diagrams for active learning within a textbook and to use dynamic diagrams to explain concepts more clearly. It evolved into a framework with alternative versions of pages for initial study and revision and with examples from different application areas. It has recently been improved with a drag-and-drop user-interface that allows customised e-books to be created. Possible future directions are discussed.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122480796","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 new law allows access to Anonymized microdata, and at the same time it requires users to go through an application process and imposes some restrictions. The National Statistics Center (NSTAC) has developed a type of microdata which can be accessed without an application process and used without restrictions. These data do not contain original microdata, but consist of Synthetic microdata. The absence of an application process and usage restrictions make Synthetic microdata particularly suitable for educational use. This paper outlines the process for creating Synthetic microdata for educational use based on multi-dimensional tables derived from original microdata, and compares the characteristics of them.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123619259","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 Nuffield Foundation funded a project Reasoning from Evidence to produce some data visualisations and associated curriculum materials to support the teaching of social science at Advanced-level (ages 16– 19 in the UK), using data sets relevant to the Sociology curriculum but which have usefulness across other subject areas also. Social sciences deal routinely with contexts in which the population under consideration is not homogenous. The data used is often presented in aggregated form which disguises the characteristics of the subgroups – whether these are by ethnicity, age, socio-economic status, region or some other categorisation. This paper reports on the development of materials using data on health and on the UK public disorder of August 2011. We report on further development of data visualisations using the 2011 UK Census data.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127332194","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}

Recent advances in technology may provide innovative solutions. This paper reports on the development and implementation of a series of two-hour weekly computer laboratories that simulated the data investigative cycle in a research methods course for psychology students. The technologies included an online virtual human world, known as the Island, cloud collaboration technology and a statistical package. Each laboratory session aimed to engage students in all stages of the data investigative cycle, specifically: stating a problem, planning a study, gathering and analysing data and drawing conclusions. Student feedback from the sessions was overwhelming positive, which highlights the potential of combining innovative technologies to actively engage students in learning research methods and statistics.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"23 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115633995","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}

Over all these years, C&SD has been adopting a variety of means to reach out to students with a view to equipping our future generation with the necessary statistical knowledge and skills in this increasingly data-centric world. In particular, continuous efforts have been made to foster statistical education, including : facilitating easy access of official statistics; organising talks and visits for students; and collaborating with the local statistical community.

However, the need for statisticians, and statistical consultants in particular, has also increased, since the numbers and graphs that can be easily obtained from packages need to be interpreted into meaningful information. We can help statistics students to develop the required professionalism by giving them opportunities to work as statistical consultants while they are still studying: we were able to do just this in two recent offerings of a final-year ‘capstone’ unit of study. As part of their summative assessment, students wrote reflections on the process of applying their previous learning to a range of research and consulting problems. In this paper, we use these reflections to discuss students’ experience of becoming (and being) a statistical consultant.","PeriodicalId":202567,"journal":{"name":"Statistics Education for Progress: Youth and Official Statistics Proceedings IASE 2013 Satellite Conference","volume":"20 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133106712","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}
