Abstract
The research reported here uses common items to assess statistical reasoning of teachers enrolled in a graduate- level education course to evaluate their reasoning about sampling variability. In particular, we discuss key aspects of a purposeful course design aimed at improving teachers’ learning and teaching of statistics, and the resulting different ways of reasoning about sampling variability that teachers exhibited before and after the course.
