Title: Promoting Statistics and Data Literacy in and out of the Classroom
Abstract: Developing data literacy requires more than technical skill, it demands inclusive design, meaningful engagement, and opportunities to connect statistical thinking to the real world. In this talk, I examine how Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles (CAST, 2018) can support inclusive teaching in large postsecondary statistics courses while also extending learning beyond the classroom through extracurricular and outreach initiatives.
