Teaching Statistics series starts Monday

Join lead designer and instructor, Dr. Hollylynne Lee, in flexible and free online professional development courses in the Teaching Statistics series. Courses and micro-credentials are targeted to enhance teaching practices in middle school through introductory-level college courses.

Teaching Statistics Through Data Investigations:
Our world is rich with data sources, and technology makes data more accessible than ever before! To help ensure students are future ready to use data for making informed decisions, many countries around the world have increased the emphasis on statistics and data analysis in school curriculum–from elementary/primary grades through college. This course allows you to learn, along with colleagues from other schools, an investigation cycle to teach statistics and to help students explore data to make evidence-based claims.

NEW! Teaching Statistics Through Inferential Reasoning:
Every day we have opportunities to make data-based decisions and to consider how information we gather can inform us about what can be claimed about a situation, process, or larger collection. To prepare the next generation of data active citizens, we need to engage learners of all ages in investigations focused on making inferences and claims, supported by samples of data. This course can assist you in developing instructional strategies to emphasize inferential reasoning through posing different inferential questions. We strongly recommend that you either take the Teaching Statistics through Data Investigations MOOC-Ed or complete the Orientation unit before this course starts in October.
