Statistics as a Progression - Dee Crescitelli & Bonny Riedell (2021)
Description:
Description: Statistics is gaining recognition as an important component of mathematics education, from the primary grades to middle and high school continuing to post-secondary.
During this course (two half-day sessions), participants will deepen their understanding of statistics and see the standards and skills of their grade level as part of a progression starting in primary and continuing into middle and high school. Essential statistics standards in the Kentucky Academic Standards for Mathematics begin in first grade and continue through all grade levels with the goal of developing student ability to comprehend and deal with variability and statistical information in the world around them and participate effectively in an information-laden society. The KCAS- Mathematics also position students as doers of statistics as they take part in the production, interpretation, and communication of data. Participants will explore instructional strategies for developing statistical understanding and receive virtual resources for use with students.
The intended audience for this course is 2nd through 6th Grade teachers.
