Technology-Enhanced Probability and Statistics Education Using the Statistics Online Computational Resource
April 30, 2010 - 10:14am | by rtbrown
The Statistics Online Computational Resource (www.SOCR.ucla.edu) provides online aids for probability and statistics education. We will demonstrate a new Java-based infrastructure, SOCR Motion Charts which freely accessible on the web at www.socr.ucla.edu/SOCR_MotionCharts. Statistical inference based on confidence intervals presents significant challenges in AP statistics and undergraduate probability and statistics education. To address these issues, we developed a pair of applets available freely at www.socr.ucla.edu/htmls/exp/CI_Experiment.html. Spatial data are encountered in many disciplines and their visualization on georeferenced maps enhances the analysis of the data. We will discuss examples on environmental spatial data using the new SOCR applet and R packages.
