-
Description
-
What can we do the first day of class to give students a feel for what to expect in the course and generate some enthusiasm for learning and statistics? To investigate this question, a number of prominent statistics educators were recently asked "What do you like to do in your first class of the semester"? Their responses and experiences of the author are summarized in this paper to provide a collection of tips, stories, topics for generating discussion, and general advice for getting a course going in a positive direction.

Tutorial: Color, Culture and Class, Color, Culture and Class, Tutorial (2010)
-
Description
-
Race thinking dominates ways in which people in the United States differentiate groups of people from each other. This tutorial focuses on associations between color and culture in order to examine how racial meanings are constructed and made comprehensible as well as how they are routed through representations of class. Using a combination of texts -- academic articles, films, newspapers and advertisements -- we will explore representations of "whiteness," "blackness," and other "race-d" identities in the public arena. Throughout the semester we will interrogate the language, ideas and assumptions that give meaning to the different ways we perceive the world around us and through which we understand our individual experiences.
