cms_teaching_and_assessing_professional_skills.pptx

Abstract: There are many important life and professional skills that students need, which are often not taught or assessed in statistics and mathematics classrooms. When students enter the workplace, they will be expected to: work in teams and have accountability to their team members; communicate technical results in writing for various audiences; design and deliver presentations and field questions; give and receive meaningful feedback; and self-reflect on their goals, progress, and achievements.

High School Outreach – Machine Learning, Finance, and Data Bias, at Ottawa, Tuesday, May 30, 2023
Abstract: Over the last few years I’ve had the opportunity to give presentations to several high school groups relating to statistics. There are many benefits of academics doing this kind of outreach work: students (and their teachers!) enjoy hearing about the practical applications of what they are seeing in class, and are curious about the use of statistics in their future careers; and you get to share your knowledge and get students excited about statistics. In this presentation, I will share details about the topics I spoke about, including machine learning, finance, and data bias, as...
