摘要

算术不是一种奢侈:然而,美国成年人的计算能力比大多数其他发达国家的成年人要低。虽然正式的统计培训是有效的,但很少有成年人接受过这种培训——学校是造成我们在美国成年人中看到的不平等的主要原因。鉴于新闻是成年人经常接触定量内容的领域,我们的跨学科记者和社会科学家团队提出了一个思考数学和新闻的研究议程。我们在这里就最近的两篇新闻文章进行对话,对比记者和研究人员对每篇文章的看法。最后,我们讨论了全球COVID-19大流行为我们这两个行业带来的特殊机遇和挑战©2021,国家算术网络版权所有

Better News about Math: A Research Agenda
Numeracy is not a luxury: numbers constantly factor into our daily lives Yet adults in the United States have lower numeracy than adults in most other developed nations While formal statistical training is effective, few adults receive it – and schools are a major contributor to the inequity we see among U S adults That leaves news well-poised as a source of informal learning, given that news is a domain where adults regularly encounter quantitative content Our transdisciplinary team of journalists and social scientists propose a research agenda for thinking about math and the news We engage here in a dialogue about two recent news articles, contrasting journalist and researcher perspectives on each We close by talking about the particular opportunities and challenges that the global COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare for both of our professions © 2021, National Numeracy Network All rights reserved
