Anna Khalemsky; Roy Gelbard; Yelena Stukalin – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2025
Classification, a fundamental data analytics task, has widespread applications across various academic disciplines, such as marketing, finance, sociology, psychology, education, and public health. Its versatility enables researchers to explore diverse research questions and extract valuable insights from data. Therefore, it is crucial to extend…

Byran J. Smucker; Nathaniel T. Stevens; Jacqueline Asscher; Peter Goos – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
The design and analysis of experiments (DOE) has historically been an important part of an education in statistics, and with the increasing complexity of modern production processes and the advent of large-scale online experiments, it continues to be highly relevant. In this article, we provide an extensive review of the literature on DOE…

Allison S. Theobold; Megan H. Wickstrom; Stacey A. Hancock – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2024
Despite the elevated importance of Data Science in Statistics, there exists limited research investigating how students learn the computing concepts and skills necessary for carrying out data science tasks. Computer Science educators have investigated how students debug their own code and how students reason through foreign code. While these…

Bay Arinze – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2023
Data Analytics has grown dramatically in importance and in the level of business deployments in recent years. It is used across most functional areas and applications, some of the latter including market campaigns, detecting fraud, determining credit, identifying assembly line defects, health services and many others. Indeed, the realm of…

Amaliah, Dewi; Cook, Dianne; Tanaka, Emi; Hyde, Kate; Tierney, Nicholas – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2022
Textbook data is essential for teaching statistics and data science methods because it is clean, allowing the instructor to focus on methodology. Ideally textbook datasets are refreshed regularly, especially when they are subsets taken from an ongoing data collection. It is also important to use contemporary data for teaching, to imbue the sense…

Vilhuber, Lars; Son, Hyuk Harry; Welch, Meredith; Wasser, David N.; Darisse, Michael – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2022
We describe a unique environment in which undergraduate students from various STEM and social science disciplines are trained in data provenance and reproducible methods, and then apply that knowledge to real, conditionally accepted manuscripts and associated replication packages. We describe in detail the recruitment, training, and regular…

Towse, John; Davies, Rob; Ball, Ellie; James, Rebecca; Gooding, Ben; Ivory, Matthew – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2022
We advocate for greater emphasis in training students about data management, within the context of supporting experience in reproducible workflows. We introduce the "L"ancaster "U"niversity "ST"atistics "RE"sources (LUSTRE) package, used to manage student research project data in psychology and build…

Dogucu, Mine; Çetinkaya-Rundel, Mine – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2022
It is recommended that teacher-scholars of data science adopt reproducible workflows in their research as scholars and teach reproducible workflows to their students. In this article, we propose a third dimension to reproducibility practices and recommend that regardless of whether they teach reproducibility in their courses or not, data science…
