These include tools that allow users to ‘drag and drop’ data sets (e.g. RAW), tools designed to display particular data sets (e.g. eXplorer) and software libraries (e.g. D3.js). We report on a review of visualisation tools, where we have described the sorts of visualisations facilitated by each tool, along with features such as ease of use and cost. Data visualisations can give new insights into complex data sets, and can be used directly to reshape teaching. We map out teaching opportunities facilitated by different tool types. Understanding novel data visualisations has become an important element of statistical literacy, and so curricula should expose students to a wide variety of examples.","PeriodicalId":421900,"journal":{"name":"Teaching Statistics in a Data Rich World IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"127 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129906252","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 exploration of data is fundamentally important for anyone working with data, yet it receives relatively little importance in many statistics courses. The poster illustrates some key aspects of tables and graphs in R-Instat and how they can be used to quickly get an overview of data. It shows how descriptive analyses are made into an easy and natural process, both to teach and to learn. We illustrate a wide variety of graphs that use ggplot2 in R, how to produce tables that are eye-catching and useful, and the similarities between tables and graphs. We can have a table of graphs or graphs where some of the cells have a table. Particular attention will be drawn to the value of a true problem based approach, where students start with a problem and some data and are free to use any appropriate analytic methods. The key to this approach is to have data which is rich enough that a combination of approaches yields more insights than any single analysis. Analyzing data can be fun!","PeriodicalId":421900,"journal":{"name":"Teaching Statistics in a Data Rich World IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"58 22","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120822935","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}

In Africa, too much of statistical teaching is theoretical. This leaves students with a lack of data handling skills, and often unprepared to find meaning in data.

This paper explains some of the decisions behind R-Instat’s approach to encouraging descriptive analysis. It also proposes how this could support the teaching of good descriptive statistics.","PeriodicalId":421900,"journal":{"name":"Teaching Statistics in a Data Rich World IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115261433","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 teaching is currently being introduced in most of the training streams, such as economics, management sciences, and agronomic sciences. Despite this positive development, there are a number of shortcomings in the teaching of statistics. There is an absence of statistical reasoning in students: the ability to analyze and interpret the results of calculations. Statistics courses are taught by teachers who have often been forced to teach it, usually mathematics teachers, who on the whole have a formal approach to statistics. The mathematician takes the place of the statistician, without considering more applied questions. \u2028 In order to encourage better statistical understanding, we suggest the presence of experienced statisticians in any university or scientific research institution, in association if necessary; training seminars (Study visits, refresher courses, thematic networking of statisticians, etc.) in countries with more statistics education capacity; local training for researchers; participation in regional seminars; creation of courses of study more oriented towards statistical processing and data processing; and drafting and dissemination of guides to good statistical practice in experimentation, sampling and publication of results.","PeriodicalId":421900,"journal":{"name":"Teaching Statistics in a Data Rich World IASE Satellite Conference","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128517004","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}

To enable dynamic graphics in R, I developed a package animatoR, which supports smooth transitions of graphical elements and simplifies preparation of animated displays.

The target group was developmental math instructors who provide formative level instruction that can be defining in developing quantitative reasoning. Data were collected using a 10-item scale developed from a set of criteria that focused on knowledge acquisition, critical thinking, active learning, multiple representations, skills development, and assessment. The majority of the PBL strategies were highly rated as either \"usually\" or \"always\" (ranging from 72% to 90%), however, some key strategies were lacking, particularly critical thinking, active learning, and multiple representations, which were rated as either \"rarely\" or \"sometimes\" (ranging from 39% to 63%).
