摘要我们提出了几个模块，解决社会公正问题的统计学入门课程。这些活动考虑了住房位置、家庭语言和就业部门可能存在的差异，因为它们分别与获得健康食品、靠近交通造成的空气污染和靠近水力压裂现场造成的健康问题有关。统计内容包括基本的描述性统计、调查设计和分析、列联表、独立性、各种分位数和假设检验。我们描述的任务，满足一些GAISE准则，我们报告其实施。沿着，我们分享了作为社会正义界新手所面临和克服的挑战。
Abstract We present several modules that address social justice issues in an introductory statistics course. The activities consider possible disparities of housing location, language spoken at home, and job sector as they relate to, respectively, access to healthy foods, air pollution via proximity to traffic, and health concerns via proximity to fracking sites. Statistical content includes basic descriptive statistics, survey design and analysis, contingency tables, independence, various quantiles, and hypothesis testing. We describe the assignments, which satisfy some GAISE Guidelines, and we report on their implementation. Along the way, we share the challenges we faced and overcame as novices in the social justice community.
