With new developments in biomedical technology, it is now a viable therapeutic treatment to alter genes with techniques like CRISPR. At the same time, increasingly cheaper perform whole genome sequencing, resulting rapid advancement gene therapy and editing precision medicine. Understanding current industry academic applications of provides an important backdrop future scientific developments. Additionally, machine learning artificial intelligence allow for reduction time money spent...
Many online courses use discussion forums to encourage active engagement and student-to-student interaction in courses. However, forum assignments often lack much of the structure, format, accountability that is associated with high-quality student experiences interactions. This paper uses a classroom research model introduce, develop, evaluate Collaborative Keys for an undergraduate population. We will share how were revised facilitate cooperative learning asynchronous introductory...
Statistical modeling continues to gain prominence in the secondary curriculum, and recent recommendations emphasize data science computational thinking may soon position algorithmic models into school curriculum. Many teachers' preparation for experiences teaching statistical have focused on probabilistic models. Subsequently, much of research literature related understanding has This study explores extent which statistics teachers appear understand ideas modeling, specifically processes...
Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) are responsible for the instruction of many statistics courses offered at university level, yet little is known about these students’ preparation teaching, their beliefs how introductory should be taught, or pedagogical practices they teach. An online survey to examine characteristics was developed and administered as part an NSF-funded project. The results, based on responses from 213 GTAs representing 38 Ph.D.–granting departments in United States,...
Statistics students’ conceptions of the work statisticians and discipline statistics may play an important role in topics to which they attend their interest pursuing further study. To learn about conceptions, we collected open-ended survey responses from 44 undergraduate students who had completed introductory courses. We used a grounded theory phenomenographical qualitative approach identify several themes conceptions. In addition test-and-procedure conception, offer other themes, such as...
One of the first simulation-based introductory statistics curricula to be developed was NSF-funded Change Agents for Teaching and Learning Statistics curriculum. True its name, this curriculum is constantly undergoing change. This article describes story as it has evolved at University Minnesota offers insight into promising new future avenues continue affect radical, substantive change in teaching learning statistics. Supplementary materials are available online.
Undergraduate statistics programs can help students hone a wide range of quantitative, computational, and communicative skills as they prepare for fruitful career. In this paper, we explore what motivates to choose major in extent incoming majors recognize these wider part doing statistics. To build theories regarding toward statistics, interviewed nine first-year at large public university analyzed their responses using grounded theory approach. Each student shared views "who" is them, kind...
Incoming university students’ unique experiences with and perspectives of statistics may shape their learning trajectories, recruitment, retention in the discipline. We completed qualitative case studies three first-year majors. Each student shared views “who” is to them, how they imagined a career statistics, recalled prior motivations for studying statistics. contrast students remark on varying relate chosen field. Results varied perceived nature content engaging rich data sets were...
As a nurse with eight years’ experience of discharge co-ordination, I read interest the article from staff who delayed patient’s by 24 hours in response to request daughter (reflections December 8).
