My research interests are in the teaching and
learning of statistics. I am also interested in
measurement and assessment as it relates to statistics
education research. A further interest if mine is in
statistical computing and in thinking about different
ways to integrate computing into the statistics
curriculum. I am currently a co-PI on two National
Science Foundation (NSF) funded projects. One is to
develop and evaluate an innovative, model-based
curriculum for introductory statistics (CATALST). The
other is to develop a survey of statistics teachers’
practices and beliefs (STEPS).
Are you
interested in finding a graduate program in statistics education?
