This $800,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) is aimed at expanding and assessing the art and practice of statistical thinking in post-secondary statistics instruction. The grantee, Superior Statistical Research LLC, will provide faculty professional development through intensive workshops, sustained interactions, formative assessment, and support materials to help statistics instructors at over 600 institutions better align their teaching with the Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) framework. The project will produce freely-available instructor-facing videos, applets, and other multimedia resources to promote conceptual understanding of statistics and reach a broad and diverse student population. Over the 4-year project period, the 600 participating educators are expected to directly impact over 75,000 students.
