Effective statistics instruction – like many other disciplines – should empower students to ask questions and interrogate data to answer questions. We look at research evaluating the impact of an inquiry-focused statistics curriculum that showed very large gains for student learning by emphasizing statistical practice rather than mathematical routines.
Later, we read a review of creativity research that identified key areas where students need practice with creativity (just like any other skill). We must make space for risk-taking and student exploration.
We drink Autumnal Harvester, a seasonal sour ale from Abomination Brewing Company in North Haven, CT.
