Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching: Statway

Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching: Statway [ http://www.carnegiefoundation.org/statway ]

Created by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, the Statistics Pathway (Statway) is focused on providing educational resources on statistics, data analysis, and quantitative reasoning. The hope is that the Statway program will help students "understand the world around them and the math they can use right now." On the site, interested parties can take advantage of resources related to this mission, including the "Problem Solution Exploration Papers". These papers are designed to measure student success in community college developmental mathematics and to help identify problems of practice for potential future work. Visitors can also view materials from their recent summer institute, including presentations made by content specialists and others. The site is rounded out by the "Readings, Reports, Essays" area which includes some primers on improving developmental mathematics education
