Abstract:
|
The statistics education community has made great progress in providing resources and advice for teaching introductory statistics. However, one major component of most introductory courses that has not received attention is the training of teaching assistants for these courses. At this luncheon, we will share information about what is done at our institutions and discuss ideas about what we can do better.
