Peter K. Dunn – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
The use of group work projects is common in introductory statistics courses, including projects where students collect their own data. However, the COVID-induced lockdown at the start of 2020 meant that data collection was compromised. In this study, we examine a situation where students were permitted to use artificial (made-up) data for their…

Puslednik, Louise; Brennan, Patrick C. – Australian Journal of Education, 2020
Authentic student-led inquiry and exposure to scientific research impact students' science career choices. Given Australian students decline in STEM [science, technology, engineering and mathematics] skills, knowledge of whether such programmes impact student learning is critical. This research examined the short-term impact of an authentic,…

Stagg, Adrian; Nguyen, Linh; Bossu, Carina; Partridge, Helen; Funk, Johanna; Judith, Kate – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2018
