Mathematical Sciences (21)This project is using workshops and a distance-learning course to improve the statistical expertise and pedagogical knowledge of instructors of introductory statistics at 2-year colleges. The project is conducting a series of eight traveling workshops, each held in conjunction with a regional meeting of the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC), to disseminate best practices and statistical content knowledge to an audience of instructors who may have limited backgrounds in statistics and limited opportunities for professional development. In addition, the project is conducting a 2-day workshop in conjunction with the 2010 national AMATYC meeting, is offering a distance learning course, and is establishing online discussion groups for instructors of introductory statistics. All of these activities are aimed at 2-year college instructors and are addressing both statistical content and pedagogy following recognized national guidelines. This project is preparing faculty at 2-year colleges to effectively teach introductory statistics by providing access to exemplary resources. The workshops, distance course, and discussion groups are affecting substantial change in the way introductory statistics is taught at 2-year institutions, and are building a stronger community of introductory statistics instructors.

数学科学(21)这个项目正在利用讲习班和远程学习课程来提高两年制大学统计学入门教师的统计专门知识和教学知识。该项目正在举办一系列八个巡回讲习班，每个讲习班都与美国两年制学院数学协会(AMATYC)的一次区域会议同时举行，以向可能在统计学方面背景有限、专业发展机会有限的教师受众传播最佳做法和统计内容知识。此外，该项目正在结合2010年全国反统计和反腐败委员会会议举办为期两天的讲习班，提供远程学习课程，并为入门统计讲师建立在线讨论小组。所有这些活动都是针对两年制大学教师，并根据公认的国家指导方针处理统计内容和教学方法。这个项目正在培养两年制学院的教师，通过提供对示范资源的访问，有效地教授概论统计学。讲习班、远程课程和讨论小组正在影响两年制机构教授统计学入门课程的方式的重大变化，并正在建立一个更强大的统计学入门教师社区。
