Grants available for our course in Copenhagen

European in-service training within the framework of Erasmus+ KA1
This in-service teacher-training course deals with how to make sense of statistical information through different presentation forms and media. The participants will understand how to develop students’ statistical concepts and thinking.
Special attention will be paid to international databases and functionality related to presentation of data in graphs, tables and maps as well as comparisons of time-series data sets. Also the developed toolbox offers the interactivity of uploading own data.
The pedagogical advice will use an activity-based approach, based on problem-solving and on concept development.

Date:  Monday 7 till Thursday 10 September 2015.
