| Reviews | | By Alumnus - 27 Jun 2013, Rate: poor | | Perhaps it?s just because I?m ieetrestnd in the area, but it seems to me that lack of statistical literacy is a particular blight on public discourse in Australia. You should try teaching first or second year social-science students. You'd be horrified just simple graphs are hard for many (no jokes). I reckon part of this is actually due to what they teach at primary school, and not just the trend away from doing mathematics at high school. In this respect, lots of the stuff you would have done is now cut out (which is why almost everything is done with calculators now), which means that many kids don't have a good grasp of stuff which you would take for granted and would take you no effort to solve (like, for example, simple inequalities, which a lot of that early learning and memorization stuff helps you to learn). | | |
