As a consequence, statistics plays an important role in their education. So we need to make statistics personally meaningful to our students and show them the importance of statistics to their professional career. To achieve this goal we analyze piece of news that have statistical information, promote the debate in class and sometimes we try other way to communicate that information. Besides engage students, we develop their ability to interpret, critique, and communicate about statistical information.engEducationStatisticsCommunication professionalsData visualizationconference object
