Dr. Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel was the professional night speaker at this year’s AP Statistics grading event in Tampa, Florida.
The AP Statistics grading event is an annual gathering where teachers and college faculty members score the free-response sections of the AP Statistics exam. The professional night talk is a key highlight, providing attendees with an opportunity to gain insights from prominent figures in the field.
Dr. Çetinkaya-Rundel's talk, "Statistics in the Age of Data Science," introduced the department's introduction to data science course, STA 199: Introduction to Data Science and Statistical Thinking, and invited the audience to consider how data science ideas can be infused into the AP Statistics curriculum.
