Abstract:

Each panelist selected a research study from the statistics education literature and will discuss it briefly as well as talk about how s/he has (or will) use it to inform her/his own teaching of statistics. The main idea of this session is to help us think about using existing research to inform our teaching in addition to doing research in our classrooms. The discussant will talk about the implications of the statistics education research for our teaching in light of what the three panelists present.
