摘要：统计学中某些概念的教学，可以从个人实践中获得即时反馈。为了给大量的学生提供这样的实践，我们基于一个历史事件编写了一个模拟器：1968年5月22日的损失，以及随后对核潜艇USS Scorpion的搜索。学生们在一个简化的搜索版本上工作，可以看到概率随着新证据的变化而变化。该模拟器旨在辅助贝叶斯概念的教学，特别是贝叶斯更新。它已经在我们的课程中使用，我们描述了我们的经验和结果，以及我们的学生对它的使用的反应。模拟器是开源的，免费提供，易于实现和运行，因为它只需要一台机器来提供网页。我们将详细解释我们在部署和使用它方面的经验。
Abstract Teaching some concepts in statistics greatly benefits from individual practice with immediate feedback. In order to provide such practice to a large number of students we have written a simulator based on an historical event: the loss in May 22, 1968, and subsequent search for the nuclear submarine USS Scorpion. Students work on a simplified version of the search and can see probabilities change in response to new evidence. The simulator is designed to assist in the teaching of Bayesian concepts, in particular Bayesian updating. It has been deployed in our courses and our experience and results are described, as well as the reactions of our students to its use. The simulator is open source, freely available and easy to implement and run, as it only requires a machine to serve web pages. We explain in detail our experience with its deployment and use.
