New Challenges for Statistics Education for Lifelong Learning in the Knowledge-based Society

自20世纪90年代中期以来，在大多数海外国家，从中小学到高等教育的统计教育框架都进行了改革，以培养学生的统计思维作为日常生活中解决问题的技能。通过这些过程，在课程、教学方法、学习方式、教学材料和评估框架方面形成了各种新概念。在日本，这是近年来逐渐出现改革迹象的阶段。在此背景下，本研究对统计学课程的国际比较进行了研究，并开发了符合国际标准的日语原版教学材料和学习评估框架。并对今后修订国家统计教育课程纲要提出建议。

Since the mid-1990s,in most of overseas countries,frameworks of statistics education through from primary and secondary to higher education have been reformed towards at cultivating students'statistical thinking as skills of problem-solving in daily lives. Through these processes various new concepts in curriculum, teaching methods,learning styles, teaching and learning materials and framework of assessment have been developed. In Japan,it is the stage that signs of the reform are appearing gradually in recent years.In this background, in this study we have studied on international comparison of statistics curriculums and developed original teaching and learning materials and a framework of learning assessment in Japanese that conform to the international standard. We also give a proposal for the next revision of national guideline on school curricula of statistical education.
