Description
This ICME-13 Topical Survey provides a review of recent research into statistics education, with a focus on empirical research published in established educational journals and on the proceedings of important conferences on statistics education. It identifies and addresses six key research topics, namely: teachers' knowledge; teachers' role in statistics education; teacher preparation; students' knowledge; students' role in statistics education; and how students learn statistics with the help of technology. For each topic, the survey builds upon existing reviews, complementing them with the latest research.
This is an open access book, the electronic versions are freely accessible online.
Reviews
"The advertised purpose of the booklets was to update readers on recent developments in mathematics education. The booklet at hand attempts to do this in 28 pages ... . this booklet might best be used to give researchers an overview of the field. It could also be a gold mine for a graduate student looking for a topic for a dissertation as the authors make numerous references to gaps in past research." (Robert W. Hayden, MAA Reviews, maa.org, February, 2017)
