The International Association for Statistical Education (IASE https://iase-web.org/) presents our October webinar. Lucia Zapata-Cardona, Universidad de Antioquia and Travis Weiland, University of Houston, are presenting, and we welcome you all to join us. We also ask you to share this invitation with high school statistics teachers and other statistics education networks in your country. We welcome IASE and non-IASE members to the session.
Details about the webinar are below and on our webinar page https://iase-web.org/Webinars.php. Critical Theory in Statistics Education 6 October 2022; 18:00 UTC (see below for localized date/time) Webinar duration: 90 minutes Presenters: Lucia Zapata-Cardona, Colombia and Travis Weiland, USA We are hoping to have this in dual languages – Spanish and English Register here https://forms.gle/VDdJmHBrmRhgfqoM7 We are in an information age where data is constantly being collected and analyzed under the guise of benefiting all. This would seem to be a time for statistics and data science education to flourish. However, many of the algorithms and processes have baked into them the same biases as those who created them. Critical theory provides a lens to interrogate systemic issues of injustice and address crises in society. Given our current state of democracies in crisis across the globe we plan to discuss ways that statistics and data science educators can and have incorporated ideas from critical theory into their work in statistics and data science education. We provide some background into critical theory and how it has been taken up in mathematics education work and then discuss how these ideas could and have been used in the context of statistics and data science education work. Our goal is also to foster dialogue over these ideas so significant time will be devoted to discussion and questions. Starting at: 7 Oct, 2:00 am Perth, Beijing 7 Oct, 4:00 am Brisbane 7 Oct, 4:30 am Adelaide 7 Oct, 5:00 am Sydney 7 Oct, 7:00 am Auckland Register here https://forms.gle/VDdJmHBrmRhgfqoM7

Thursday - welcome
We are pleased to announce that the theme of this year's FYiM workshop to be held in Brisbane is
Celebrating 10 years of First Year in Maths!
Our first forum was in 2013 at The University of Melbourne. Let's look back on 10 years of talking about teaching maths and statistics at the first-year level. What is still relevant? What has changed? What new challenges lie ahead?
Here is the programme.
Details of the workshop are:
When: Thursday 6 July and Friday 7 July - 10 am to 5 pm
Where: The University of Queensland, St Lucia campus and via Zoom
Cost: FREE! Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea will be provided thanks to UQ's School of Maths and Physics. You are welcome to join us for dinner (at own cost) on Thursday night at a local/CBD restaurant.
We look forward to seeing you in sunny Brisbane!
