SOCR Wiki Educational Materials Expansion Project
SOCR Project - SOCR Wiki Educational Materials Expansion Project
- Project Goal: To expand the existent SOCR Activities with new modular or meta hands-on exercises and activities that utilize the available [| SOCR tools].
- Background: The SOCR resource consists of a number of java applets, computational library and educational materials. As part of our commitment to modernize probability and statistics education using IT-tools we design, test, validate and disseminate a number of materials and activities that illustrate the power of various statistical techniques, experimental processes and interactive Java applets.
- Project specs:
This project will involve designing new educational materials for IT-based probability, statistics and math education. I will developed 30+ interactive activities that demonstrate the utilization of www.SOCR.ucla.edu] computational applets for improving student motivation, building intuition and enhancing knowledge retention. In this project, we will be designing new interactive educational materials and resources for blending IT-tools in the regular statistics education curriculum. Examples of such tools and materials are included here: SOCR_EduMaterials. We need to expand the current collection of activities and provide activities for most of the SOCR [Distributions], [Experiments], [Games], [Analyses], [Charts] and [Modelers], as well as design new meta-activities that utilize several of these utilities (e.g., Power Transform, EM Mixture Modeling, Law of Large Numbers).
