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…

Donoghue, Thomas; Voytek, Bradley; Ellis, Shannon E. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Nolan and Temple Lang's "Computing in the Statistics Curricula" (2010) advocated for a shift in statistical education to broadly include computing. In the time since, individuals with training in both computing and statistics have become increasingly employable in the burgeoning data science field. In response, universities have…

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…

Wang, Sabrina Luxin; Zhang, Anna Yinqi; Messer, Samuel; Wiesner, Andrew; Pearl, Dennis K. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
This article describes a suite of student-created Shiny apps for teaching statistics and a field test of their short-term effectiveness. To date, more than 50 Shiny apps and a growing collection of associated lesson plans, designed to enrich the teaching of both introductory and upper division statistics courses, have been developed. The apps are…

Çetinkaya-Rundel, Mine; Ellison, Victoria – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
The proliferation of vast quantities of available datasets that are large and complex in nature has challenged universities to keep up with the demand for graduates trained in both the statistical and the computational set of skills required to effectively plan, acquire, manage, analyze, and communicate the findings of such data. To keep up with…

Chelsea Nagy; Jennifer Balch – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2025
Today's data-driven world requires earth and environmental scientists to have skills at the intersection of domain and data science. These skills are imperative to harness information contained in a growing volume of complex data to solve the world's most pressing environmental challenges. Despite the importance of these skills, Earth and…

Son, Ji Y.; Blake, Adam B.; Fries, Laura; Stigler, James W. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Students learn many concepts in the introductory statistics course, but even our most successful students end up with rigid, ritualized knowledge that does not transfer easily to new situations. In this article we describe our attempt to apply theories and findings from learning science to the design of a statistics course that aims to help…

Enhancement of the Command-Line Environment for Use in the Introductory Statistics Course and Beyond
Gerbing, David W. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
R and Python are commonly used software languages for data analytics. Using these languages as the course software for the introductory course gives students practical skills for applying statistical concepts to data analysis. However, the reliance upon the command line is perceived by the typical nontechnical introductory student as sufficiently…

Adams, Bryan; Baller, Daniel; Jonas, Bryan; Joseph, Anny-Claude; Cummiskey, Kevin – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Since the publishing of Nolan and Temple Lang's "Computing in the Statistics Curriculum" in 2010, the American Statistical Association issued new recommendations in the revised GAISE college report. To reflect modern practice and technologies, they emphasize giving students experience with multivariable thinking. Students develop…

Beckman, Matthew D.; Çetinkaya-Rundel, Mine; Horton, Nicholas J.; Rundel, Colin W.; Sullivan, Adam J.; Tackett, Maria – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
A version control system records changes to a file or set of files over time so that changes can be tracked and specific versions of a file can be recalled later. As such, it is an essential element of a reproducible workflow that deserves due consideration among the learning objectives of statistics courses. This article describes experiences and…

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…
