A Conceptual Framework for Teaching Statistics from a Distance
Mills, Jamie
Journal of Effective Teaching, v15 n1 p59-68 2015
This article discusses important considerations for teachers who teach or may be thinking about teaching statistics online or in a hybrid/blended format. Suggestions from previous research and practical teaching experiences are examined. Moreover, the latest recommendations from the literature are considered in the context of teaching from a distance, which includes the 2014 curriculum guidelines published by the American Statistical As-sociation (ASA Curriculum Undergraduate Guidelines Workgroup, 2014) and the Guide-lines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) College Report (2005; 2012). The paper concludes with suggestions about essential next steps to further advance our understanding of teaching and learning in this environment.
