Statistics - Then and Now 

11-05-2020 19:24:14

Technology has changed the way statistics is taught. The presenter will discuss these changes and their impact on students. Examples will be shared of teaching a modern statistics course by incorporating simulation, randomization, and bootstrapping into your Introductory Statistics class to help students develop intuitive understanding of inferential statistics.

I will continue to update materials on my website at http://georgewoodbury.com/AMATYC2020/ 

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.

Thanks for reminding me to have students gather data as often as we can. Too, often, I am the only one doing the simulation because I feel like I don't have the time for them to do the simulation.  But, as you point out, seeing all of the different examples is one of the beauty of stats.  I wish it was easier for students to be working together in a "virtual StatCrunch space" and see other people's results.
