Engel, Arthur
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2, 3, 243-294, Jul 71
A discussion of the importance and procedures for including probability in the elementary through secondary mathematics curriculum is presented. Many examples and problems are presented which the author feels students can understand and will be motivated to do. Random digits, Monte Carlo methods, combinatorial theory, and Markov chains are included in the suggested curriculum. (JG)
