This book presents the breadth and diversity of empirical and
practical work done on statistics education around the world. A
wide range of methods are used to respond to the research questions
that form it's base. Case studies of single students or teachers
aimed at understanding reasoning processes, large-scale
experimental studies attempting to generalize trends in the
teaching and learning of statistics are both employed. Various
epistemological stances are described and utilized. The teaching
and learning of statistics is presented in multiple contexts in the
book. These include designed settings for young children, students
in formal schooling, tertiary level students, vocational schools,
and teacher professional development. A diversity is evident also
in the choices of what to teach (curriculum), when to teach
(learning trajectory), how to teach (pedagogy), how to demonstrate
evidence of learning (assessment) and what challenges teachers and
students face when they solve statistical problems (reasoning and
thinking).
This handbook connects the practice of statistics to the teaching
and learning of the subject with contributions from experts in
several disciplines. Chapters present current challenges and
methods of statistics education in the changing world for
statistics and mathematics educators. Issues addressed include
current and future challenges in professional development of
teachers, use of technology tools, design of learning environments
and appropriate student assessments. This handbook presents
challenging and inspiring international research perspectives on
the history and nature, current issues, and future directions of
statistics education and statistics education research.
