EDUX 7180. This course is one of five Learning Math workshops for elementary and middle school teachers (K-8). These courses, organized around the content standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), will help participants better understand the mathematics concepts underlying the content that they teach. This course introduces statistics as a problem-solving process. In this course, learners can build their skills through investigations of different ways to collect and represent data, and describe and analyze variation in data. Through practical examples, participants will come to understand some statistical concepts, such as data representation, variation, the mean and median, bivariate data, probability, designing statistical experiments, and population estimations. The concluding case studies, divided into grade bands for K-2, 3-5, and 6-8 teachers, show participants how to apply what they have learned during the course in their own classroom.
