Publisher's Synopsis

This special issue derived from a workshop aimed to encourage active discussion about statistical education through the open sharing of current practice, thinking, and resources. It begins by providing a framework for improving statistical education by looking at curriculum development, pedagogical practices, reflective practice, learning frameworks, and online learning support. Next, it presents a statistical education project with multimillion dollar funding, taking place in three different continents. Electronic resources are described in the third article--in particular--one that was developed at Ohio State University. The next two papers outline business statistics, followed by a reflection on the promotion of lifelong learning in statistics in the workplace. Finally, the last paper investigates the special needs of overseas students attending Australian universities to learn statistics.
