Title
Teaching statistics at the college level: how did I get here?
Speaker
John Holcomb, Cleveland State University
Abstract
This informal discussion will trace how I became involved in teaching statistics. I will speak to my initial experiences in teaching statistics and how those events still frame my teaching today. I will then highlight some of my guiding thoughts in preparing class materials for all levels of teaching. Finally, I will speak to the current state of statistical education at the national level and the needs of the community.
