To advance statistics education, the American Statistical Association (ASA) has funded a project to develop Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE). The project is made up of two groups of eminent statistics educators, with one group focusing on PreK-12 education, and with the other group focusing on the introductory college course.
Both groups have written draft guidelines that, when complete, will help substantially to improve statistics education. These guidelines have been placed on the web to enable interested readers to see them and to perhaps make suggestions for improvements. You are encouraged to read them. They are at http://it.stlawu.edu/~rlock/gaise
