People make use of quantitative information on a daily basis. Professional education organizations for mathematics, science, social studies, and geography recommend that students, as early as middle school, have experience collecting, organizing, representing, and interpreting data. However, research on middle school students' statistical thinking is sparse. A cohesive picture of middle school students' statistical thinking is needed to better inform curriculum developers and classroom teachers. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a framework for characterizing middle school students' thinking across 4 processes: describing data, organizing and reducing data, representing data, and analyzing and interpreting data. The validation process involved interviewing, individually, 12 students across Grades 6 through 8. Results of the study indicate that students progress through 4 levels of thinking within each statistical process. These levels of thinking were consistent with the cognitive levels postulated in a general developmental model by Biggs and Collis (1991). 相似文献

A hypothetical framework to characterize statistical knowledge for teaching (SKT) is described. Empirical grounding for the framework is provided by artifacts from an undergraduate course for prospective teachers that concentrated on the development of SKT. The theoretical notion of “key developmental understanding” (KDU) is used to identify landmarks in the development of SKT subject matter knowledge. Sample KDUs are given for the subject matter knowledge categories of common content knowledge, specialized content knowledge, and horizon knowledge. The theoretical notion of “pedagogically powerful idea” is used to describe how KDUs must be transformed to become useful in teaching. Examples of pedagogically powerful ideas for the pedagogical content knowledge categories of knowledge of content and teaching and curriculum knowledge are provided. Knowledge of content and students is hypothesized as a basis for the development of pedagogically powerful ideas. 相似文献

The human mind inevitably comprehends the world in mathematical terms (among others). Children's informal and invented mathematics contains on an implicit level many of the mathematical ideas that teachers want to promote on a formal and explicit level. These ideas may be innate, constructed for the purpose of adaptation, or picked up from an environment that is rich in mathematical structure, regardless of culture. Teachers should attempt to uncover the mathematical ideas contained in their students' thinking because much, but not all, of the mathematics curriculum is immanent in children's informal and invented knowledge. This mathematical perspective requires a focus not only on the child's constructive process but also on the mathematical content underlying the child's thinking. Teachers then can use these crude ideas as a foundation on which to construct a significant portion of classroom pedagogy. In doing this, teachers should recognize that children's invented strategies are not an end in themselves. Instead, the ultimate goal is to facilitate children's progressive mathematization of their immanent ideas. Children need to understand mathematics in deep, formal, and conventional ways. 相似文献

We develop a general ontology of statistical methods and use it to propose a common framework for statistical analysis and software development built on and within the R language, including R's numerous existing packages. This framework offers a simple unified structure and syntax that can encompass a large fraction of existing statistical procedures. We conjecture that it can be used to encompass and present simply a vast majority of existing statistical methods, without requiring changes in existing approaches, and regardless of the theory of inference on which they are based, notation with which they were developed, and programming syntax with which they have been implemented. This development enabled us, and should enable others, to design statistical software with a single, simple, and unified user interface that helps overcome the conflicting notation, syntax, jargon, and statistical methods existing across the methods subfields of numerous academic disciplines. The approach also enables one to build a graphical user interface that automatically includes any method encompassed within the framework. We hope that the result of this line of research will greatly reduce the time from the creation of a new statistical innovation to its widespread use by applied researchers whether or not they use or program in R. 相似文献

This study investigated selected cultural influences on probabilistic thinking of 11–12-year-old children in England. Language, beliefs and experience are shown to influence the children's “informal knowledge” of probability, i.e., the intuitive knowledge they bring to school and use in thinking about probabilistic situations presented in school. Some of the pupils' responses in interviews and in a questionnaire were consistent with the “outcome approach” and with the use of certain heuristics: “representativeness”; “availability”; “equiprobability.” A significant proportion of pupils revealed superstitions. Standard “random devices” such as dice were regarded by some children as subject to personal, religious or causative influences. In a comparison between two culturally-contrasted subgroups in the same school, we found significant differences in scores on probability tests, even when taking account of numerical and non-verbal ability. But the differences between the two groups could almost entirely be explained by differences in language ability. 相似文献

Using the theory of random closed sets, we extend the statistical framework introduced by Schreiber(11) for inference based on set-valued observations from the case of finite sample spaces to compact metric spaces with continuous distributions. 相似文献

A sample of 134 sixth‐grade students who were using the Connected Mathematics curriculum were administered an open‐ended item entitled, Vet Club (Balanced Assessment, 2000). This paper explores the role of misconceptions and naïve conceptions in the acquisition of statistical thinking for middle grades students. Students exhibited misconceptions and naïve conceptions regarding representing data graphically, interpreting the meaning of typicality, and plotting 0 above the x‐axis. 相似文献

A Framework for Representing Reticulate Evolution 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Acyclic directed graphs (ADGs) are increasingly being viewed as more appropriate for representing certain evolutionary relationships, particularly in biology, than rooted trees. In this paper, we develop a framework for the analysis of these graphs which we call hybrid phylogenies. We are particularly interested in the problem whereby one is given a set of phylogenetic trees and wishes to determine a hybrid phylogeny that embeds each of these trees and which requires the smallest number of hybridisation events. We show that this quantity can be greatly reduced if additional species are involved, and investigate other combinatorial aspects of this and related questions.Received November 12, 2003 相似文献

Abstract The evolution of a biological system, like a cellular one, is analyzed by constructing a Markov process on a suitable state space. This is performed by the introduction of an infinitesimal generator for the Markov semigroup associated to this process. A measure valued process is then defined in a natural way and it is proved that his first moment satisfies the Sharpe–Lotka system in a distributional sense. Hence the study of the moments of the process is tried. An involved integral equation for the moment generating functional is derived. 相似文献

A five-stage approach to mathematical modelling is reviewed. It is shown how this can be used as a framework for introducing the teaching of simple stock control and distribution, financial modelling and planning, linear programming, decision trees, network analysis and discrete-event simulation. The framework puts emphasis on the conceptualization and verbalization stages, which provides a unifying link for the techniques described and is found substantially to improve formulation skills. 相似文献

In response to a research question of Sertel and Van der Bellen, Kelly presented the theorem that, for decisive choices on finite sets of alternatives, sequential commutativity implies (hence characterizes) fidelity. Broadening attention from decisive to reflexive choices (decisive on the singletons) and dropping the finiteness assumption for sets of alternatives, we show that sequential fidelity for such choices is characterized by a condition several degrees weaker than sequential commutativity. 相似文献

In this paper we develop constructive invertibility conditions for the twisted convolution. Our approach is based on splitting
the twisted convolution with rational parameters into a finite number of weighted convolutions, which can be interpreted as
another twisted convolution on a finite cyclic group. In analogy with the twisted convolution of finite discrete signals,
we derive an anti-homomorphism between the sequence space and a suitable matrix algebra which preserves the algebraic structure.
In this way, the problem reduces to the analysis of finite matrices whose entries are sequences supported on corresponding
cosets. The invertibility condition then follows from Cramer’s rule and Wiener’s lemma for this special class of matrices.
The problem results from a well known approach of studying the invertibility properties of the Gabor frame operator in the
rational case. The presented approach gives further insights into Gabor frames. In particular, it can be applied for both
the continuous (on
) and the finite discrete setting. In the latter case, we obtain algorithmic schemes for directly computing the inverse of
Gabor frame-type matrices equivalent to those known in the literature. 相似文献
