Mathematical Sciences (21) This exploratory project is adapting and implementing several types of innovative materials (textbooks, software, web resources, and special simulation tools) produced in the past few years for introductory statistics courses. The development of accompanying lesson plans and student activity guides builds on results from current statistics education research; and the intellectual merit of the project is further strengthened by using the recently published Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) for teaching introductory statistics courses as an overall framework for the effort. The project is evaluating the usability of its materials in another setting through a comparative study on the effectiveness of its different lesson plans and activity guides in randomly selected sections of a second introductory statistics course taught in a different college. In addition, the project team is providing lesson plans and other materials on a project website that is to be incorporated into the CAUSE (Consortium for the Advancement of Undergraduate Statistical Education) digital collection in the National Science Digital Library. Both the comparative study and the dissemination of annotated video clips are helping expand the knowledge base of results in statistics education and enhance the project's broader impact.

数学科学（21）这个探索性项目正在适应和实施几种类型的创新材料（教科书，软件，网络资源和特殊的模拟工具）在过去几年中产生的入门统计课程。在当前统计教育研究成果的基础上制定了相应的课程计划和学生活动指南;通过使用最近出版的统计教育评估和教学指导方针，进一步加强了该项目的知识价值，该指导方针用于教授入门统计课程，作为这一努力的总体框架。该项目正在评价其材料在另一个环境中的可用性，方法是对在另一所大学讲授的第二门入门统计课程中随机选择的部分的不同教案和活动指南的有效性进行比较研究。此外，项目小组正在一个项目网站上提供课程计划和其他材料，该网站将纳入国家科学数字图书馆的CAUSE（促进大学生统计教育联合会）数字收藏。比较研究和散发附加说明的视频剪辑都有助于扩大统计教育成果的知识基础，并增强该项目的广泛影响。
