摘要

A primary goal of introductory statistics courses is to develop a student’s ability to thinkstatistically. To motivate students to this end, the literature suggests that statistics coursesuse exercises that are relevant and familiar to students.Work in educational psychologyhighlights the importance of connecting newconcepts to pre-existing knowledge,mentalmodels, or schema. One method to meet these criteria is to develop exercises andproblems that use real-life data. While real-life data provide a context for the applicationof statistical methods, the data does not necessarily provide a context or process fordeveloping the ability to think statistically. This teaching brief describes a set of logical,sequential, and ready-to-use exercises that motivate statistical inquiry and thought inline with the GAISE College Report recommendations. The exercises use real-life datafreely sourced from Major League Baseball and the nonfiction story of Moneyball: TheArt of Winning an Unfair Game. Student reactions indicate that these exercises, whichare anchored in real-life data with a real-life story, are successful in motivating studentinterest in statistics.
