Dvir, Michal; Ben-Zvi, Dani – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
Growing scholarship on the pedagogical applications of statistical modeling is currently taking place to create adaptations of this practice to introduce novices to statistics. These are intended to promote novices' reasoning, and are typically void of formal mathematical procedures and calculations. In this article, we define the potential…

Nathan McJames; Andrew Parnell; Ann O'Shea – Educational Review, 2025
Teacher shortages and attrition are problems of international concern. One of the most frequent reasons for teachers leaving the profession is a lack of job satisfaction. Accordingly, in this study we have adopted a causal inference machine learning approach to identify practical interventions for improving overall levels of job satisfaction. We…

Kazak, Sibel; Fujita, Taro; Turmo, Manoli Pifarre – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
In today's age of information, the use of data is very powerful in making informed decisions. Data analytics is a field that is interested in identifying and interpreting trends and patterns within big data to make data-driven decisions. We focus on informal statistical inference and data modeling as a means of developing students' data analytics…

Forbes, Sharleen; Chapman, Jeanette; Harraway, John; Stirling, Doug; Wild, Chris – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2014
For many years, students have been taught to visualise data by drawing graphs. Recently, there has been a growing trend to teach statistics, particularly statistical concepts, using interactive and dynamic visualisation tools. Free down-loadable teaching and simulation software designed specifically for schools, and more general data visualisation…

Zetterqvist, Lena – Teaching Mathematics and Its Applications, 2017
Researchers and teachers often recommend motivating exercises and use of mathematics or statistics software for the teaching of basic courses in probability and statistics. Our courses are given to large groups of engineering students at Lund Institute of Technology. We found that the mere existence of real-life data and technology in a course…

Watson, Jane; Chance, Beth – Australian Senior Mathematics Journal, 2012
Formal inference, which makes theoretical assumptions about distributions and applies hypothesis testing procedures with null and alternative hypotheses, is notoriously difficult for tertiary students to master. The debate about whether this content should appear in Years 11 and 12 of the "Australian Curriculum: Mathematics" has gone on…
