A Cognitive Curriculum: Improving Statistics Cognition Online
Abstract
This chapter provides a discussion of developing a curriculum for a modern statistics course which aims to improve statistics cognition. We begin by examining micro-level curricular considerations, such as designing learning objectives and assessments which can allow transfer of cognitive processes. Then, we discuss the implications of macro-level curricular considerations, such as tracking, and the need to search for a mismatch between the learner and their environment. Collectively, we argue that such practices allow educators to develop a cognitive curriculum. We conclude the chapter with a discussion of how online learning environments inherently lend themselves to a cognitive curriculum and provide numerous benefits for the educator and learner.
