Abstract
Although statistics education has been a concern of statisticians for over a century, it was only following the establishment of the Educational Committee within the International Statistical Institute at the end of 1948 that serious efforts began to stimulate international research and debate on the needs for education and training in statistics, as well as measures and programs to meet these needs. A detailed survey of how actively this committee and its recent successor, the International Association for Statistical Education, took up this challenge appears in Vere-Jones (1995).
尽管统计教育一个多世纪以来一直是统计学家关注的问题,但直到1948年底,在国际统计研究所内成立了教育委员会之后,才开始认真努力,激发国际上对统计教育和培训需求的研究和辩论,以及满足这些需求的措施和计划。Vere-Jones(1995)对该委员会及其最近的继任者国际统计教育协会(International Association for Statistical Education)如何积极应对这一挑战进行了详细调查。
