Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Neumann, David L.; Hood, Michelle; Neumann, Michelle M. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2012
In a previous report, Neumann (2010) described the use of interactive computer-based simulations in the assessment of statistical concepts. This assessment approach combined declarative knowledge of statistics with experiences in interacting with computer-based simulations. The aim of the present study was to conduct a systematic evaluation of the…

Neumann, David L. – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2010
Interactive computer-based simulations have been applied in several contexts to teach statistical concepts in university level courses. In this report, the use of interactive simulations as part of summative assessment in a statistics course is described. Students accessed the simulations via the web and completed questions relating to the…
