"How can writing be used effectively in statistics courses?"
with Norean R. Sharpe, Babson College
2:00 to 2:30 p.m. Eastern time, October 9th, 2007
Writing can be a wonderful tool to help illuminate what students are learning in our statistics courses. Examples and strategies to include writing in your teaching toolkit -- and to increase the writing skills of students -- include team assignments, weekly case reports, in-class questions, and others. The webinar will share effective approaches and assignments gleaned from twenty years of using writing in introductory and upper-level statistics courses.
