The goal of this research project is to develop a scientifically tested way to effectively display the massive amount of data that is available in online homework systems. This research is done in partnership with Mathtoons Media Inc. whose goal is to develop and enhance Science, Technology, Engineering and Math education through the use of mobile practice platform Practi. The Practi system generates massive amounts of learning outcome data that needs to be summarized to allow educators to understand where students find difficulty and also develop new techniques to educate in the new mobile environment. This work will develop and test various methods to visually and numerically summarize the data so that educators can quickly make decisions and improve the overall education experience of students. The research will also develop additional learning content in statistics that can be used by educators across Canada to enhance the statistical skills of students. Given the massive amounts of data available in all areas of science it is imperative that students have the skill to understand and summarize the data to make data-driven decisions. This research is one step in the direction to increase the quantitative skills of students.

这个研究项目的目标是开发一种经过科学测试的方法来有效地显示在线作业系统中可用的大量数据。这项研究是与Mathtoons Media Inc.合作完成的，该公司的目标是通过使用移动练习平台Practi来发展和加强科学、技术、工程和数学教育。Practi系统生成了大量的学习结果数据，需要对这些数据进行总结，以便教育工作者了解学生在哪里遇到困难，并开发新的技术来在新的移动环境中进行教育。这项工作将开发和测试各种方法，以直观和数字方式总结数据，以便教育工作者能够快速做出决策，改善学生的整体教育体验。该研究还将开发统计方面的额外学习内容，供加拿大各地的教育工作者使用，以提高学生的统计技能。鉴于所有科学领域都有大量可用的数据，学生必须具备理解和总结数据以做出数据驱动决策的技能。这项研究是朝着提高学生定量分析能力的方向迈出的一步。
