Abstract: 

The research-project CUPS took place in the years 1975-1981. We intended; (1) to develop a curriculum for the last three grades 7,8,9 of the German Hauptschule which enables even a slow learner to behave adequately in simple stochastic situations, i.e. to cope with them by simple statistical and probabilistic methods; and (2) to develop strategies for planning, performing and evaluating such a curriculum.
