About CAUSE
The CAUSE Charter (PDF)
Arising from a strategic initiative of the American Statistical Association, 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. The overarching goals in each area are:
-
Resources: Collect, review, develop, and disseminate resources for members of the undergraduate statistics education community.
-
Professional Development: Coordinate, develop, and disseminate opportunities, programs, and workshops for teachers and others involved in statistics education projects and initiatives, present and future.
-
Outreach: Establish and promote communication and collaborations among statistics educators, as well as with other professional organizations and disciplines that are concerned with undergraduate statistics education.
-
Research: Establish the area of statistics education research as a recognized discipline with a visible presence. Prepare and connect researchers from all disciplines that conduct research in statistics education.
Our primary vehicle for communication is CAUSEweb.org, which is supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
The CAUSE Editorial board is also the statistics editorial board for the MERLOT project.
