Abstract:

Arising from a strategic initiative of the ASA, the Consortium for the Advancement of Undergraduate Statistics Education (CAUSE) is a national organization whose mission is to support and advance undergraduate statistics education in four target areas: resources, professional development, outreach, and research. In this session, the latest CAUSE initiatives will be presented and highlights discussed. The director of CAUSE, Dennis Pearl, will provide an organizational overview and an update on collaborative efforts between CAUSE and other professional groups. The CAUSEweb editor, Roger Woodard, will speak about the growing collection and the broad variety of materials available on CAUSEweb; Deborah Rumsey will report on the first United States Conference on Teaching Statistics (USCOTS), held in May, 2005, in Columbus, Ohio; and Joan Garfield will discuss the latest initiatives and resources made available by the Research arm of CAUSE.
