Abstract:
The MAA’s NSF-funded StatPREP Project had, as its mission to empower statistics instructors to create data-driven learning opportunities so that students can gain the skills and knowledge needed to work and live in a data-centric world. The forthcoming MAA Notes volume on the StatPREP Project showcases the tools and resources developed by the project, dives into examples of how to transform the introductory stats classroom (including lessons on common intro stat topics that use tools like the Little Apps to explain and explore topics using R online via a web browser), as well as other topics and considerations for improving and expanding data science education. We will explore these tools and ways they can be used in your classroom.
