An Epistemological View on Fundamental Stochastic Ideas

Heitele, Dietger

Educational Studies in Mathematics, 6, 2, 187-205, Jul 75

Arguing that the teaching of stochastic processes should reflect the experience and reality of the student, the author urges concentration on fundamental ideas. The development of intuition should be encouraged, and to this end continuity in teaching and a spiralled curriculum are important. (SD)
