There's still time to join us for a new webinar on Statistics Education Research on the 11th! Register here iase-web.org/Webinars.php and join in on the conversation #StatsEd #EduSky #research

Two figures discussing statistics research. This flyer states: Untold Stories in Statistics Education Research: Contemplation to Publication and Beyond

11 September 2025; 15:00 UTC (see below for localized date/time)

Webinar duration: 90 minutes

Presenter(s): Elinor Jones (Chair), Larry Lesser, Mine Dogucu and Florian Berens

Many research endeavours have a backstory which is more complex, nonlinear, messy, and instructive than the final article suggests. This webinar brings together authors of diverse statistics education studies to share how their research unfolded over time, including unanticipated obstacles, conflicting reviewer feedback, and evolving perspectives. Expect honesty, practical wisdom, and a deeper appreciation for the start-to-finish journey of ‘doing research’ in statistics education.

We are going on a strike today. This is not *only* about money. It's about the increasing threat of rightwing government policies on education, research, and academic freedom. Not only in the Netherlands, but across the world. epgroningen.nl/disappearing...
