Abstract Textbook data is essential for teaching statistics and data science methods because it is clean, allowing the instructor to focus on methodology. Ideally textbook datasets are refreshed regularly, especially when they are subsets taken from an ongoing data collection. It is also important to use contemporary data for teaching, to imbue the sense that the methodology is relevant today. This article describes the trials and tribulations of refreshing a textbook dataset on wages, extracted from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79) in the early 1990s. The data is useful for teaching modeling and exploratory analysis of longitudinal data. Subsets of NLSY79, including the wages data, can be found in supplementary materials from numerous textbooks and research articles. The NLSY79 database has been continually updated through to 2018, so new records are available. Here we describe our journey to refresh the wages data, and document the process so that the data can be regularly updated into the future. Our journey was difficult because the steps and decisions taken to get from the raw data to the wages textbook subset have not been clearly articulated. We have been diligent to provide a reproducible workflow for others to follow, which also hopefully inspires more attempts at refreshing data for teaching. Three new datasets and the code to produce them are provided in the open source R package called yowie. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.
摘要教材数据对统计学和数据科学方法的教学至关重要,因为它是干净的,可以让教师专注于方法论。理想情况下,教科书数据集定期刷新,尤其是当它们是从正在进行的数据收集中提取的子集时。同样重要的是,将当代数据用于教学,以灌输这种方法论在今天是相关的。本文描述了刷新20世纪90年代初从全国青年纵向调查(NLSY79)中提取的工资教科书数据集的经历。这些数据有助于纵向数据的教学建模和探索性分析。NLSY79的子集,包括工资数据,可以在许多教科书和研究文章的补充材料中找到。NLSY79数据库一直持续更新到2018年,因此可以获得新的记录。在这里,我们描述了刷新工资数据的过程,并记录了这一过程,以便在未来定期更新数据。我们的旅程很艰难,因为从原始数据到工资教科书子集所采取的步骤和决定尚未明确阐述。我们一直致力于为其他人提供一个可复制的工作流程,这也有望激发更多刷新教学数据的尝试。三个新的数据集和产生它们的代码在名为yowie的开源R包中提供。本文的补充材料可在线获取。

Developing Students’ Intuition on the Impact of Correlated Outcomes 培养学生对相关结果影响的直觉

Abstract While correlated data methods (like random effect models and generalized estimating equations) are commonly applied in practice, students may struggle with understanding the reasons that standard regression techniques fail if applied to correlated outcomes. To this end, this article presents an in-class activity using results from Monte Carlo simulations to introduce the impact of ignoring the correlation between outcomes by applying standard regression techniques. This activity is used at the beginning of a graduate course on statistical methods for analyzing correlated data taken by students with limited mathematical backgrounds. Students gain the intuition that analyzing correlated outcomes using methods for independent data produces invalid inference (i.e., confidence intervals and p-values) due to underestimated or overestimated standard errors of the effect estimates, even though the effect estimates themselves are still valid. While this standalone 90-minute in-class activity can be added at the beginning of an existing course on statistical methods for correlated data without any further changes, techniques for reinforcing students’ intuition throughout the course and applying this intuition to teach sample size and power calculations for correlated outcomes are also discussed. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.
摘要虽然相关数据方法(如随机效应模型和广义估计方程)通常应用于实践中,但如果将标准回归技术应用于相关结果,学生可能很难理解失败的原因。为此,本文介绍了一个课堂活动,使用蒙特卡洛模拟的结果,通过应用标准回归技术来介绍忽略结果之间相关性的影响。这项活动用于研究生课程的开始,该课程涉及分析数学背景有限的学生获取的相关数据的统计方法。学生们获得了这样的直觉,即使用独立数据的方法分析相关结果会产生无效的推断(即置信区间和p值),这是由于低估或高估了效应估计的标准误差,即使效应估计本身仍然有效。虽然这项90分钟的独立课堂活动可以在现有的相关数据统计方法课程开始时添加,而无需任何进一步的更改,但也讨论了在整个课程中增强学生直觉的技术,并将这种直觉应用于教授相关结果的样本量和幂计算。本文的补充材料可在线获取。

Abstract A Statistics Practicum course is offered as another option besides an internship or research experience for students to fulfill a required statistics major capstone experience. This article discusses the first and fourth offering of this practicum course, which provides a unique perspective on the initial implementation of the course and its development over time. The course offers students opportunities to carry out statistical consulting projects with external clients. Students were given multiple reflection assignments throughout the course. Challenges of the projects were discussed in the reflections, which included issues of data cleaning and analysis. Students also responded to both Likert-scale and open-ended questions on an end of semester survey. These responses provided information on sentiment regarding the consulting projects and perceived usefulness of various components of the Statistics Practicum course. Both student reflection assignments and survey responses were analyzed in this study. Explanations of the thought processes that went into setting up and running the course are included. Advice and suggestions for course improvements and successful administration are also presented.
摘要除了实习或研究经验外,统计学实践课程是学生完成所需统计学专业顶点经验的另一种选择。本文讨论了这门实践课程的第一门和第四门课程,它为课程的最初实施及其随时间的发展提供了一个独特的视角。该课程为学生提供了与外部客户开展统计咨询项目的机会。在整个课程中,学生们被布置了多项反思作业。反思中讨论了这些项目的挑战,其中包括数据清理和分析问题。学生们还在期末调查中回答了Likert量表和开放式问题。这些答复提供了关于对咨询项目的看法以及统计实践课程各组成部分的有用性的信息。本研究分析了学生的反思作业和调查问卷。其中包括对课程设置和运行过程的解释。并对课程改进和成功管理提出了建议和建议。

Abstract Students need to know how to discern patterns and make decisions using visual information in our modern economy. However, there are few sources of real-world information available to instructors that give students access to visualizations to help develop their skills in interpreting complex situations using diverse data sources. This article outlines a teaching exercise that uses the New Zealand government’s data portal. This website contains detailed time series data and visualizations that span economic, social and health data derived from multiple government ministries and New Zealand businesses. The portal continues to be used by government decision-makers to make real-time decisions about the nation’s economy and citizen well-being. Typically, statistical agencies carefully vet the data they supply. The data portal prioritizes the timeliness of the information for decision-makers working in a crisis. This brief communication outlines an exercise for students to explore and interpret data through visualizations.
摘要学生需要知道如何在现代经济中利用视觉信息来辨别模式并做出决策。然而,很少有真实世界的信息来源可供教师使用,这些信息可以让学生获得可视化,以帮助他们发展使用不同数据源解释复杂情况的技能。本文概述了一个使用新西兰政府数据门户网站的教学练习。该网站包含详细的时间序列数据和可视化,涵盖了来自多个政府部委和新西兰企业的经济、社会和健康数据。政府决策者继续使用该门户网站对国家经济和公民福祉做出实时决策。通常,统计机构会仔细审查他们提供的数据。数据门户优先考虑在危机中工作的决策者的信息及时性。这篇简短的交流概述了学生通过可视化探索和解释数据的练习。

Abstract Statistical literacy is key in this heavily polarized information age for an informed and critical citizenry to make sense of arguments in the media and society. The responsibility of developing statistical literacy is often left to the K-12 mathematics curriculum. In this article, we discuss our investigation of K-8 students’ current opportunities to learn statistics created by state mathematics standards. We analyze the standards for alignment to the Guidelines for the Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE II) PreK-12 report and summarize the conceptual themes that emerged. We found that while states provide K-8 students opportunities to analyze and interpret data, they do not offer many opportunities for students to engage in formulating questions and collecting/considering data. We discuss the implications of the findings for policy makers and researchers and provide recommendations for policy makers and standards writers.
摘要在这个两极分化严重的信息时代,统计素养是知情和批判性公民理解媒体和社会争论的关键。发展统计素养的责任往往留给K-12数学课程。在这篇文章中,我们讨论了我们对K-8学生目前学习国家数学标准创建的统计学的机会的调查。我们分析了与《统计教育评估和指导指南》(GAISE II)K-12学前教育报告一致的标准,并总结了出现的概念主题。我们发现,虽然各州为K-8学生提供了分析和解释数据的机会,但它们并没有为学生提供太多制定问题和收集/考虑数据的机会。我们讨论了研究结果对决策者和研究人员的影响,并为决策者和标准制定者提供了建议。

Abstract There have been significant developments in the field of statistics education over the past decade that have improved outcomes for all students. However, there remains relatively little research on the best practices for teaching statistics to students with disabilities. This article describes a conceptual visual approach to teaching a college level general education statistics course aimed at addressing the needs of students with disabilities and other struggling students. The conceptual visual components were employed using the technology tool TinkerPlots. The approach is informed by the recommendations of the GAISE report as well as research on Universal Design and Cognitive Load Theory. With support from the NSF (HRD-1128948), the approach was pilot tested at a college that exclusively serves students with LD, ADHD, and autism to gather preliminary evidence of its effectiveness in teaching statistics concepts to that population. The results of this research and the emergent recommendations to help students with disabilities gain access to statistics are described in this article. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.
摘要在过去的十年里,统计教育领域取得了重大进展,改善了所有学生的成绩。然而,关于向残疾学生教授统计学的最佳做法的研究相对较少。本文介绍了一种概念可视化的方法来教授大学水平的普通教育统计学课程,旨在满足残疾学生和其他困难学生的需求。使用技术工具TinkerPlots使用概念视觉组件。该方法参考了GAISE报告的建议以及通用设计和认知负荷理论的研究。在美国国家科学基金会(HRD-1128948)的支持下,该方法在一所专门为LD、ADHD和自闭症学生服务的大学进行了试点测试,以收集其在向该人群教授统计学概念方面有效性的初步证据。本文介绍了这项研究的结果以及帮助残疾学生获得统计数据的紧急建议。本文的补充材料可在线获取。

Allan Rossman, Bob delMas
RD: At age 18, I was in my first and second years of college as an undergraduate at the University of Minnesota. I always had a strong interest in science and an aptitude for mathematics. I was someone that my fellow classmates in grade school and high school sought out for help in these areas, so I also demonstrated an ability to explain and guide in understandable ways. When I considered going to college, I initially intended to major in a science area that combined my academic interests, such as biochemistry. However, I came to realize that I was very much interested in a type of epistemological question: Why do I and others seem able to learn science and mathematics, whereas others find these disciplines challenging? This led me to declare Psychology as a major as a first-year student, and then switch to Child Development in my sophomore year, a decision that set the stage for my academic future.
RD:18岁时,我在明尼苏达大学读大学一年级和二年级。我一直对科学有浓厚的兴趣,对数学也很有天赋。我是我小学和高中同学在这些领域寻求帮助的人,所以我也表现出了以可以理解的方式解释和指导的能力。当我考虑上大学时,我最初打算主修一个结合我学术兴趣的科学领域,比如生物化学。然而,我意识到我对一种认识论问题非常感兴趣:为什么我和其他人似乎能够学习科学和数学,而其他人却觉得这些学科具有挑战性?这让我在一年级时宣布心理学为专业,然后在大二时转到儿童发展,这一决定为我的学术前途奠定了基础。

This led me to declare Psychology as a major as a first-year student, and then switch to Child Development in my sophomore year, a decision that set the stage for my academic future.","PeriodicalId":34851,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education","volume":"30 1","pages":"191 - 197"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47757520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract The widely used Draw a Scientist Test was revised to focus on statistics and 110 Elementary Statistics students were asked to draw a statistician. In addition, to better understand students’ drawings and have some relative comparison, 173 College Algebra students were asked to draw a mathematician. A detailed analysis of students’ images and students’ demographic information was conducted using descriptive statistics, categorical data analysis, logistic regressions, and hierarchical cluster analysis. Results showed that students tend to perceive statisticians and mathematicians as primarily White and male. However, female students were more likely than male students to draw a female statistician and mathematician. Two themed clusters emerged from the hierarchical cluster analysis for both the math and statistics students. We discuss the implications of the results for teaching and future research.
摘要对目前广泛使用的“画一个科学家”测试进行了修改,以统计学为重点,要求110名基础统计学学生画一个统计学家。此外,为了更好地理解学生的画并进行一些相对比较,173名大学代数学生被要求画一个数学家。采用描述性统计、分类数据分析、logistic回归和分层聚类分析等方法对学生形象和学生人口统计信息进行详细分析。结果显示,学生倾向于认为统计学家和数学家主要是白人和男性。然而,女学生比男学生更有可能画一个女统计学家和数学家。通过对数学和统计学学生的分层聚类分析,出现了两个主题聚类。我们讨论了结果对教学和未来研究的意义。
