Dancing on the Tails of the Bell Curve: Readings on the Joy and Power of Statistics - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This unique anthology has one primary goal: to inspire or motivate students to want to learn and use statistics. Through carefully selected readings by the founders of statistics and probability, contemporary statisticians, and well-known individuals in the arts, politics, and science, Dancing on the Tails of the Bell Curve provides readers with role models who have experienced joy from their use of statistics and concrete examples of how statistics shape almost every decision in society that affect our medications, food supply, educational programs, sporting events, mass media, and entitlement programs, to name only a few. Designed to supplement the technical materials professors assign in their classrooms, this book is both an invaluable resource for students and professors as well as for professionals in fields such as marketing, advertising, demographics, politics, polling, and healthcare who want to gain motivation to learn and use statistics. Richard Altschuler, Ph.D., has been a statistician and research consultant for over forty years. He is the founder and president of Expert Research Studies, a company specializing in statistical analysis, research consulting, and tutoring, and taught statistics at Temple University and New York University. A sociologist by academic training, he has written, edited and published over thirty books on topics in sociology, psychology, healthcare and politics.

Paperback. Etat : New. Each year tens of thousands of professors confront over a million students required to take statistics courses in almost every discipline, from anthropology to zoology. Because they did not choose to take "stat" courses, most students lack the motivation to learn and use statistics and, therefore, experience statistics as a "grunt" subject to pass at all costs. Professors try to overcome this problem by giving interesting lectures and assigning good textbooks and websites, but these literary and electronic resources are not meant to inspire students to want to learn and use statistics. This important gap is filled by Dancing on the Tails of the Bell Curve-a unique anthology designed to supplement the technical resources professors assign in their classrooms-which has one goal: to inspire or motivate students to want to learn and use statistics. Through carefully selected readings, this book provides role models for students to identify with who have experienced joy from their use of statistics and concrete examples of how statistics shape almost every decision in society that involves our laws, medications, food supply, interest rates, educational programs, sporting events, mass media, and entitlement programs, to name only a few.In addition to professors, this reader is ideal for parents of children underachieving in their statistics courses and students who want to gain motivation to learn and use statistics.
