Educational Psychology’s Associate Professor Robert delMas traveled to the University of Costa Rica in March, 2014 and gave a workshop on an active-learning, randomization-based curriculum for introductory statistics developed by Dr. delMas and his colleagues (Joan Garfield and Andrew Zieffler). The faculty in the School of Statistics were interested in adapting the course for Spanish-speaking students at the University of Costa Rica. To this end, three faculty from the University of Costa Rica will visit the University of Minnesota from Sept. 27 to Oct. 11 to observe how the active-learning sessions are taught, ask questions and discuss modifications to the curriculum, and plan out a collaborative research program between the Univ. of Minnesota the Univ. of Costa Rica. Work on translating assessment instruments developed by Dr. delMas and colleagues into Spanish will be initiated during the visit. The collaboration will allow for cross-cultural comparisons of the curriculum, and produce a curriculum and assessment instruments that can be used in other Spanish speaking countries, potentially leading to additional collaborations. The visit is partially supported by an International Travel Grant from the University’s Global Programs and Strategy Alliance.
