Improving the Quality of Statistical Questions Posed for Group Comparison Situations
Frischemeier, Daniel; Leavy, Aisling
Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, v42 n2 p58-65 Sum 2020
Posing statistical questions is a fundamental and often overlooked component of statistical inquiry. In this paper, we provide an overview of shared understandings regarding what constitutes a good statistical question. We then describe three approaches--a checklist for improving statistical questions, a three-phase feedback activity, and a matching game--that we find useful with preservice teachers to support the development of high-quality statistical questions for the comparison of data sets.
