Eyyûbî Yönetim Organizasyonunun Kabilesel Kökenleri
Authors: ÇAKIR Ömer Faruk
Published: June 2022

Kabile menşeli bir hanedan devleti olan Eyyûbîlerin idare yapıları, kabile normlarının izleriyle kaplıdır. Zayıf liderlik, kolektif sorumluluk, nepotizm ve maddi varlıkların üyeler arasında taksimatı gibi kabile öğretileri, Eyyûbî sultanlarının genel siyasetlerini biçimlendiren unsurlardır. Hanedanın devletleşme ve politik-askeri başarısında da, yine aynı kökenden gelen dinamiklerin belirleyiciliğine işaret edilir. Bu araştırmanın hipotezi ise, Eyyûbîlerin yükselişinde katkısı olduğu varsayılan kabile değerlerinin, aynı zamanda, devlet organizasyonlarının çözülmesine de doğrudan tesir etmiş olmasıdır. Bolca tarihsel malumat ışığında, hükümranlarının yönetimsel tutumu ile kabile tipi davranış tarzı arasındaki benzerliğe dikkat çekilmiş ve ardından, hanedanın süreğen krizlerle yıpranmasında, söz konusu tutumun yıkıcı etkisi ispatlanmaya çalışılmıştır.
İbn Hazm’a Göre Delâilü’n-Nübüvve Bağlamında Mucizenin Konumu
Authors: YALÇINKAYA Mustafa
Published: June 2022

Kelâm ekolleri genel olarak mûcize meselesini, mûcizenin tanımı, şartları, gerçekleşme biçimleri ve nübüvvete delil oluşturmadaki konumu bakımından incelemeye tabi tutarlar. Biz bu çalışmada kelâm ekollerinin mûcize konusuna yaklaşımlarını kısaca ele alarak aktardık. İbn Hazm’ın da bu konudaki görüşünü ve kabul ettiği şartları ortaya koyduk.

Mûcize konusu kelâmî ekollerin karakteristik farklılıklarının çok etki etmediği bir konudur ve genelde ortak kabuller daha fazladır. İbn Hazm da bu konuda genel yaklaşımlarla uyum içindedir. Ancak mûcizenin tanımı ve nübüvvete delil oluşu bakımından kelâmcıların geneliyle aynı ifadeler kullansa da ‘mûcizenin nübüvvete delil oluşu’ konusunda bazı farklı yaklaşımları da olmuştur. Bu konuya getirmiş olduğu bakış açısını incelediğimizde İbn Hazm’ın; Kur’an dışındaki mûcizelerde tehaddînin şart koşulmasını doğru bulmadığını ispat etmeye çalıştığı görülmektedir. Bununla birlikte O, Kur’an’ın belâgat yönünden mûcize olup olmaması hakkındaki görüşlerinde İslam ulemasının genelinden farklı bir yol takip etmiştir.

O, Allah’ın kelâmında belâgat açısından Arap belâgatı ile bir ortaklığının olamayacağını düşünür. Bunun yanında o, mûcizenin delil oluşuna verdiği önemden ötürü mûcizeye benzer yönleri bulunmakla birlikte mûcize kategorisine girmeyen gerek keramet gibi dini gerek din dışı sayılan sihir ve büyü gibi bazı olağan üstü haletleri de reddetme yoluna gitmiştir.

Ziyafetlerde, her türlü yiyecek ve içeceklerin hazırlanmasından sunulmasına kadar görev alan memurlar, yemek teşkilatı, teşrifat usulleri ve Timurlu adetlerinden bahsedilmiştir. Görevli memurların yetki ve sorumlulukları, katılımcıların ziyafet alanındaki yerleşimleri ve sunumlardaki çeşitli ritüeller örneklemelerle ortaya konulmuştur. Son olarak, Timurlu saray sofraları ve ziyafetlerini süsleyen her nevi yiyecek ve içeceklerden bahsedilmiştir.
Problems in John Locke’s Theory of Personal Identity
Authors: GÜNDAY Mustafa Çağrı
Published: June 2022

John Locke’un meşhur An Essay Concerning Human Understanding eserinin 1694 yılındaki ikinci baskısının ikinci kitabına 27. bölüm olarak eklediği Of Identity and Diversity (Özdeşlik ve Başkalığa Dair) başlığı ilk yayımlandığı günden itibaren sayısız tartışmayı beraberinde getirmiştir. Locke’un bu teorisinin bu kadar yoğun şekilde tartışılmasının sebepleri arasında teorinin anlaşılmasın güçlüğü ön plana çıkar. Locke kişisel özdeşliği tanımlarken hem materyalist hem de ruhsal töz öğretilerinden bağımsız biz pozisyon almaya gayret gösterir. Bu durum onu kişi, töz ve özdeşlik gibi terimlerin tanımını en baştan yapmaya zorlar ki bu tanımların her biri beraberinde yeni problemler getirmektedir. Locke kişisel özdeşlik sorununun çözümünde bilinci anahtar rolde kullanır ve Locke bunu düşünen tözden farklı bir şey olarak tanımlar. Bu çaba zihin felsefesi çalışmalarının geleceğini şekillendirecek bir girişim olsa da Locke’un döneminde bilinç henüz yeni yeni tartışılan bir kavramdır ve Locke’un bilinç ile tam olarak neyi kastettiği çoğu zaman anlaşılamamıştır. Onun bilinç ile aslında hafızayı kastettiğini düşünenlerin sayısı az değildir ve bu yorum Locke’un teorisini ciddi eleştirilere açık hale getirmektedir. Bir diğer eleştiri ise bu teorinin kendi içerisinde tutarsız olduğudur. Bu görüşe göre Locke’un bölümün başında özenle kurmaya çalıştığı düşünen töz-bilinç ayrımı bölümün son kısımlarına gelindiğinde yine Locke tarafından ortadan kaldırılmış veya en azından, bu ikisi arasında keskin bir ayrım yapılamayacağı kabul edilmiştir. Kısaca kişiyi geçmişteki veya gelecekteki olası haliyle özdeş kılan şeyin ne olduğunu soran kişisel özdeşlik problemi; töz, ruh ve zihin hakkında ciddi tartışmaları da beraberinde getirmiştir. Teorinin içerisindeki sorunlara rağmen veya belki de bu sayede, Locke’un kişisel özdeşlik öğretisi kendinden sonraki İngiliz felsefesinin temel tartışma konularından biri haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma Locke’un kişisel özdeşlik öğretisindeki problemleri üç ana başlık altında ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır.

Performance of Stone Column in Soft Clay- Numerical Evaluation
Authors: Ms. Ashna S  , Ms Athira C H
Published: June 2022

Stone columns are an efficient ground improvement technique for treating problematic soils. The confidence in the prediction accuracy of bearing capacity remains unsatisfactory. Soil samples were collected from vellayani paddy field and basic laboratory experiments were done. This paper aims to investigate the bearing capacity of single stone column using three-dimensional numerical analysis. Failure modes were observed and the effect of key parameters such as column’s friction angle, undrained shear strength of surrounding soil and modular ratio were investigated. Numerical results showed bulging and a combination of bulging and punching are two dominant failure modes for the single stone column. Ultimate bearing capacity is mainly influenced by the column’s friction angle and the undrained shear strength of the surrounding soil. Based on the results, a new prediction method is developed and compared reasonably well with the existing analytical solution and the field measurements.

URGENSI REGULASI PENATAAN RUANG DALAM RANGKA PERWUJUDAN PEMBANGUNAN BERKELANJUTAN
Authors: Simamora Janpatar , Andrie Gusti Ari Sarjono
Published: June 2022

Currently, spatial planning has been placed as one of the important components that will determine the success or failure of the development process of a region, especially in the context of the sustainable development process. On the other hand, population growth that is increasingly rapid from time to time ultimately creates an obligation for the government to regulate various facilities for the needs of human life. Through research conducted in a normative juridical manner, the research shows that spatial planning policy is one of the efforts in the context of realizing sustainable development. In line with that, the existence of law in any spatial planning will greatly determine the success or failure of the spatial planning policy itself. The urgency of spatial planning must be interpreted as the main agenda in the context of planning the development of a country or region. Spatial planning will greatly determine the progress of the development of a region. Thus, spatial planning policy must be seen as an instrument that can direct and build humans towards a better civilization in the future.

Authors: Al-Farawati Radwan
Published: June 2022

A comparative study of various types of lipids in a coral Pocillopora damicornis and a sponge Acanthella carteri was carried out. Samples were collected from the Obhur Creek of the Jeddah coast. The lipids were separated by column chromatography on silica and the individual class of lipids was estimated using standard procedures of spectroscopy. It was observed that phospholipids were the dominant in both the organisms (approximately 50% of the total lipids) followed by sterol lipids (9.50 mg g‑1 in sponge and 2.70 mg g‑1 in the coral. Triglycerides were found to be more in the sponge compared to coral (6.85 mg g-1 and 1.90 mg g-1, respectively). However glycolipids were higher in coral (1.30 mg g‑1) compared to the sponge (0.45 mg g-1). The total lipids in the sponge were found to be higher compared to the coral.
Spatial and Temporal Variations of Marine Benthic In-fauna Community in Northern and Southern Areas of the Kingdom of Bahrain
Authors: Al-Dawood Thamer Salem Ali
Published: June 2022

The in-fauna community inhabiting the surface sediments in the Bahrain waters during 2007-2008 was investigated to describe the spatial and temporal variations between and within Northern and Southern areas. Using a 0.05 m2 van veen grab, samples were collected from 12 sampling stations: 6 stations at each Northern and Southern waters. The samples were collected during Summer and Winter to compare the in-fauna species composition on seasonal basis at each area. In situ water analysis (temperature, salinity, turbidity, pH, dissolved oxygen and depth) and the sediment grain size analysis were carried out at same stations of in faunal samples in order to identify potential environmental key factors causing temporal and spatial variations of in-fauna assemblage. Based on species composition, in-fauna community patterns were identified and evaluated by multivariate analysis Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) using PRIMER V6. A total of 5075 specimens represented by 186 taxon were collected during the study period. Generally, the infauna abundance and number of species in the Northern area was higher than the Southern area and seasonally the samples collected in Summer were relatively more abundant than those collected in Winter. The BIOENV results revealed that the water depth and turbidity are the most influential parameters causing spatial variations of in-fauna community within Northern and Southern areas. On temporal basis, temperature found to be the factor determining major part of the temporal variations within stations associated with Southern area, however turbidity was the influential parameter of temporal variations for stations within the Northern area. On the other hand, the salinity found to be the influential factor affecting the majority of spatial variation between Northern and Southern in-fauna species composition. The present study provides a database on part of marine biodiversity representing a background on benthic community in Bahrain that can be used as a biological indicator to evaluate potential environmental impacts pertaining to developmental projects particularly dredging and reclamation works in coastal and offshore regions.

Published: June 2022

This study was conducted during the period April 2009 to March 2010 in the Northern Governorate, Kingdom of Bahrain to study the relation between water quality and Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Cadmium and Lead contents of alfalfa crop and insects living on it. The study was conducted on 6 farms, 3 irrigated with underground water and the other 3 irrigated with tertiary treated sewage effluents (TTSE). Plant samples were collected during April in 5 replications, randomly from each farm using a 25×25 cm metal frame for estimation of Nitrogen using (Kjeltec apparatus 2300), and Phosphorus by (Spectrophotometer), Cadmium and Lead content by (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer). Pitfall traps and sweeping nets were used to collect insects for analyses for Lead and Cadmium content. Results indicated that water type did not affect alfalfa, Nitrogen and Cadmium contents. Average Nitrogen content was 2.6 and 3% in alfalfa irrigated with groundwater and (TTSE), respectively. And Phosphorus content was 0.33 and 0.4% in alfalfa irrigated with ground water and (TTSE), respectively. Results also showed that irrigation with (TTSE) did not significantly affect Cadmium and Lead contents in alfalfa crop. The average concentrations of these two elements were 0.41 and 0.35 ppm, respectively, their concentrations in alfalfa irrigated with TTSE were 0.44 and 0.34 ppm, respectively. The concentrations of Cadmium and Lead in insects living on ground water irrigated alfalfa were 0.14 and 0.063 ppm, respectively, and in TTSE irrigated alfalfa were 0.338 and 0.076 ppm respectively. Cadmium and Lead concentrations were found to increase in the natural enemies of insects living on alfalfa irrigated with (TTSE) indicating biomagnification of those heavy metals in the food chain from alfalfa to insect pests and predators.

Published: June 2022

Soil pollution is one of the main environmental stresses due to the effect of various contaminations by heavy metals like lead. The aim of this study is to examine the response of a halophile species Atriplex halimus L. under lead stress. This plant is watered from the germination stage with different concentrations of lead nitrate Pb(NO3)2 1000, 3000, 5000 and 7000 ppm for 100 days. The response of plants is evaluated by an analysis of the growth mass parameters (fresh and dry weight) and biochemical parameters (chlorophyllian pigments, proline and total proteins). The results reveal a growth inhibition of the aerial and root parts by Pb(NO3)2 treatment compared to control. On the other hand, the biochemical response indicates that the amount of chlorophyll pigments reduced by the effect of different treatment of lead. In contrast, proline and total proteins contents increased in leaves and roots of Atriplex halimus L. as a response to stress.

This study aims to detect and analyze land-use, and land cover (LULC) changes in Sitra Island during the past 50 years, from 1967 to 2018, and to assess changes in class categories of LULC for each year of the study. The data were collected from various sources such as aerial photographs, satellite images, maps, previous studies and reports of government projects in addition to official statistical data of the study period. GIS was used to prepare the required maps to detect changes LULC during the study period and construct two Vector and Raster Data Models. Six class categories of land (built-up, agricultural, barren, wet, reclaimed, and industrial) were identified. The results indicated that the total area of Sitra Island land increased from 8.08 km 2 in 1967 to 15.1 km 2 in 1998, and increased from 16.4 km 2 in 2009 to more than 22.5 km 2 in 2018. As a result, the area of agricultural land, which constituted more than 30.4% of the total island area, decreased from 2.5 km 2 in 1967 to less than 1% (0.2 km 2) in 2018. The area of reclaimed areas for industrial and residential purposes increased to constitute more than 30% of the island area (6.82 km 2) in 2018. The industrial areas surrounding the island expanded to more than 30.6% of its area to reach 6.9 km 2 in 2018.

Published: June 2022

Purpose: The study aims to investigate how the five dimensions of personality affect university students’ choice of major. Design/Methodology/Approach: Big Five Inventory (BFI) was adopted with total 20 questions for the five dimensions. Through Convenience sampling, students were chosen from the departments of Criminal Justice, Nursing, Accounting, and Elementary Education. A t-test determined statistical differences by comparing the responses across various demographic categories. Findings: The results showed diverse findings about the Big Five Personality Dimensions and the choice of major. Female students were more conscientious, agreeable, and neurotic than male students. However, no significant difference was found in the openness to experience or extraversion dimension. Similarly, no remarkable difference is found among various age categories. Junior students were more agreeable than the senior students. Students with better academic performance were more conscientious and neurotic than others. Students taking more credits were more neurotic. Students showing childhood interests were found to be more open towards new experiences. Students of various majors also demonstrated different personality dimensions. Research Limitations: Future research may explore the possibility of using the complete instrument of BFI. This research limited its sampling to juniors and seniors only, which may not reflect the total student population. Managerial Implications: This study offered insights about the association of students’ personality traits with their choice of major. The results can be taken as reference for higher learning institutions to select their prospective students and for students to choose their majors in certain institutions. Originality/Value: Future researchers may research and generalize findings beyond the current parameters of this study.

Authors: M Raman Nagalaxmi , Ghoshal Satyajeet
Published: June 2022

Purpose: The present study is an attempt to analyse the New Education Policy (NEP), designed to replace the previous National Policy on Education, 1986. In both rural and urban India, the NEP could prove to be a comprehensive framework for primary/ secondary education, and additionally to vocational education. Design/Methodology/Approach: The current study is based on the qualitative analysis of various secondary data available. Findings: This study analysed and established the efficacy of the multiple exit points which now have been provided under NEP-2020, which benefit the students, by better signaling their education status and establishing their subsequent employment readiness, thereby helping India reap its demographic dividend and better utilize the yet untapped power of youth. Research limitations/implications: The principal constraint being, it attempts to analyse the implications of a newly formulated policy, which has potential, as envisioned by the policymakers, yet is dependent on various intangibles which cannot be factored in while crystal gazing into the future, especially when looking at something which will likely to bear fruit by 2030 earliest. Practical Implications: The current study would provide impetus to the policymakers, professionals to effectively implement the NEP in line with SDGs. Originality/Value: With the multidisciplinary approach to education, the study highlights the importance of a new system that the NEP2020 is trying to implement – by seeking to establish an “Academic Bank of Credit (ABC)”, which will digitally store academic credits earned from various recognized Higher Education Institutes (HEI)s.

Published: June 2022

Abstrak : Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui tentang Peran Guru Sebagai Induk Dari Semua Profesi Dalam Bidang Pendidikan Formal. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif, karena data penelitiannya tidak berbentuk angka melainkan menggunakan Kuesioner Pertanyaan tentang suasana kerja, kualitas pelayanan seorang guru saat pembelajaran atau gaya kepemimpinan seorang guru sebagai sebuah profesi. Guru merupakan unsur yang sangat penting dan tidak bisa diabaikan begitu saja dalam proses belajar mengajar, sebab guru dapat menetukan berhasil atau tidaknya sebuah proses belajar mengajar. Oleh karena itu, dalam proses pendidikan dan pengajaran perlu tersedianya guru yang profesional, artinya ialah disamping menguasai materi pelajaran, metode mengajar, juga mengerti tentang dasardasar pendidikan. Dasar-dasar pendidikan amat sangat penting diketahui oleh seorang guru dalam melaksanakan tugasnya yang mulia sebagai pengajar atau pendidik, hal ini merupakan sebagai sarana untuk membangkitkan dan memotivasi siswa dalam proses belajar mereka. Walaupun penguasaan materinya sangat baik, akan tetapi tidak didukung oleh pengetahuan akan faktor-faktor didaktis, maka akan menimbulkan dampak sebuah hambatan dalam penguasaan materi bagi siswa terhadap apa-apa yang disampaikan oleh guru tersebut. Meskipun terhadap pengalaman belajar justru menjadikan guru lebih mudah dalam menyampaikan pelajaran disertai dengan penggunaan metode yang baik dan tepat.

Basic knowledge of statistics has become necessary so that people do not become hostages of data interpretation. Since 1998, in Brazil, the National Curricula Parameters suggest the incorporation of statistics content into mathematics, although a main concern is the academic background of elementary school teachers. The aim of this work is to evaluate the basic statistical background of students in the first semester of mathematics at the Federal University of Lavras, by means of interviews and workshops. Results suggest that it is possible and necessary to plan, in the short and medium term, pedagogical workshops of statistics teaching for prospective teachers of mathematics in order to motivate and qualify them.
Teaching statistics in elementary and high school and teacher training
Authors:   Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo, de Queiroz Cileda , Coutinho Silva ,   Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo
Published: June 2022

The focus of the reflections presented here is the teacher’s point of view on the teaching and learning of statistical concepts. This paper reports the research efforts carried out recently by our group with converging results. We identified that teachers have difficulty in teaching topics related to statistics, particularly when some analysis of the data is required. Teacher discourse shows they favor the philosophy of Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA), but in practice, they restrict their work, according to the results of our study, to a more technical approach that emphasizes the use of algorithms. This research suggests the need for initial and continued training in statistics for mathematics teachers.
Variability in a sampling context: enhancing elementary preservice teachers’ conceptions
Authors:   Eastern Washington University, Canada Daniel
Published: June 2022

While recent and ongoing research has begun to reveal ways that precollege students think about variation, more research has been needed to understand the conceptions of variation held by elementary preservice teachers and also how to shape the university courses where those preservice teachers learn. This paper, sharing an excerpt from an exploratory study aimed at preservice teachers, describes changes in class responses to a sampling task where variation is a key component. Overall, going from before to after a series of instructional interventions, responses reflected a more appropriate sensitivity to the presence of variation.
Modeling scatterplot data and the signal-noise metaphor: towards statistical literacy for pre-service teachers
Authors:   University of Education, Engel Joachim , Sedlmeier Peter ,   Chemnitz University of Technology, Wörn Claudia ,   University of Education
Published: June 2022

The idea of data being a mixture of signal and noise is perhaps one of the most fruitful and fundamental ideas of statistics. To enable future mathematics teachers to educate students to become statistically literate, we propose an integrative approach connecting central topics of school mathematics with the signal-noise idea. A course on modeling functional relationships–a core topic in any mathematics curriculum–confronts students with the signal-noise idea when looking at the deviation between model and data. We provide empirical evidence that students of such a course acquire implicitly important statistical thinking skills.
Towards a suitably designed instruction on statistical reasoning: understanding sampling distribution with technology
Authors:   Megatrend University, Kadijevich Djordje , Kokol-Voljc Vlasta ,   University of Maribor, Lavicza Zsolt ,   University of Cambridge
Published: June 2022

Earlier studies on sampling distribution, its founding concepts, misconceptions about sampling distributions, and the use of simulation highlighted that (1) learning of statistics requires an understanding of multifaceted issues and relations among them; (2) learning may be examined in terms of task, technique, theory, and learner’s profile, each of which is influenced by instructional context; and (3) learning environments should be designed to stimulate flexible travelling along the network of these issues. Considering these emerged findings we attempt to outline a possible instructional design to teach sampling distribution with technology. Suggestions for training teachers in statistics education are included.
Instructing future teachers of statistics: the benefits of en-active, analogue modelling
Authors:   University of Education, Martignon Laura
Published: June 2022

I report on special features of a course on statistics and probabilities at my university, where future teachers of mathematics in primary school are instructed on en-active representations of statistical situations and on their analogue modelling. I also report on empirical work with future mathematics teachers of primary school in Baden Württemberg who have been instructed to introduce simple, en-active representations of statistical concepts in the classroom.
A report on preparing mathematics teachers to teach statistics in high school

Published: June 2022

In order to meet the goal of popularizing statistical concepts in Iranian society at large, the Iranian Statistical Society (IRSS), in cooperation with the Iranian Association of Mathematics Teachers’ Societies (IAMTS), have convinced the Ministry of Education to include one statistics course in the national school curriculum. Unfortunately, due to the lack of statistics specialists in the school system, this course has been usually taught by teachers of mathematics, who often confuse statistical thinking with statistical methods, and do not realize that there is a difference between mathematical and statistical reasoning. Hence we have started preparing these teachers to teach statistics using proper teaching methods. In this paper, we present the activities of the Isfahan Mathematics House (IMH) on the professional development of mathematics teachers, and their impact on improvement of statistics education.
The current teaching of statistics in schools in Uganda
Authors:   Makerere University, Opolot-Okurut Charles , Opyene-Eluk Patrick ,   Islamic University in Uganda, Mwanamoiza Margaret ,   Makerere University
Published: June 2022

This paper describes the current state of teaching statistics in Ugandan schools at different levels. Different emphasis is placed on teaching statistics at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. Official documents on curricula and examination make explicit statements on what statistical ideas and techniques are to be taught in schools and suggest useful skills and capabilities that school graduates should acquire, but little of the qualities are visible on the ground. There is little emphasis on the application of these techniques in the context of real life problems. Various challenges on the teaching of mathematics and statistics in schools and the school-university transition are identified, which include the curricula, the teaching force, and the nature of the students and the shortage of teaching resources. These challenges maybe addressed through synchronising students with varied mathematics school backgrounds in their study of statistics, policy adjustments and continuous professional development.

Authors:   Iowa State University, Froelich Amy , Kliemann Wolfgang ,   Iowa State University, Thompson Heather ,   Iowa State University
Published: June 2022

Through a larger initiative involving mathematical sciences faculty from the three State of Iowa Board of Regents’ institutions, faculty members from the Departments of Statistics and Mathematics at Iowa State University have started a collaboration in the area of statistics training for future and current mathematics teachers. In this paper, we begin by discussing the recent developments in high school mathematics education at both the state and national level that served as a focus for change in the statistics education of mathematics teachers in the state. We then describe our present efforts in changing curriculum in statistical content and pedagogy in the undergraduate and graduate programs at Iowa State for future and current mathematics teachers. Finally, we offer some direction for future work in these regards.
A case study in collaboration preparing secondary education teachers
Authors:   Brigham Young University, Fields Paul
Published: June 2022

Although the mission of mathematics education departments or programs is to prepare the next generation of secondary education mathematics teachers, the question still remains, “Who should provide the training in statistics education for these future teachers?” We propose that statistics education should be provided by statisticians in collaboration with mathematics educators. We describe a model that has been designed recognizing how statistical reasoning differs from mathematical reasoning and implemented incorporating how classroom pedagogy is consequently affected.
