Amelia McNamara – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2024
When incorporating programming into a statistics course, there are many pedagogical considerations. In R, one consideration is the particular R syntax used. This article reports on a head-to-head comparison of a pair of introductory statistics labs, one conducted in the formula syntax, the other in tidyverse. Pre- and post-surveys show minimal…

Tucker, Mary C.; Shaw, Stacy T.; Son, Ji Y.; Stigler, James W. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
We developed an interactive online textbook that interleaves R programming activities with text as a way to facilitate students' understanding of statistical ideas while minimizing the cognitive and emotional burden of learning programming. In this exploratory study, we characterize the attitudes and experiences of 672 undergraduate students as…

Liao, Shu-Min – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
SCRATCH, developed by the Media Lab at MIT, is a kid-friendly visual programming language, designed to introduce programming to children and teens in a "more thinkable, more meaningful, and more social" way. Although it was initially intended for K-12 students, educators have used it for higher education as well, and found it…

Burckhardt, Philipp; Nugent, Rebecca; Genovese, Christopher R. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Revisiting the seminal 2010 Nolan and Temple Lang article on the role of computing in the statistics curricula, we discuss several trends that have emerged over the last ten years. The rise of data science has coincided with a broadening audience for learning statistics and using computational packages and tools. It has also increased the need for…
