For courses in introductory statistics. This package includes MyStatLab(TM). The Art and Science of Learning from Data Statistics: The Art and Science of Learning from Data, Fourth Edition, takes a conceptual approach, helping students understand what statistics is about and learning the right questions to ask when analyzing data, rather than just memorizing procedures. This book takes the ideas that have turned statistics into a central science in modern life and makes them accessible, without compromising the necessary rigor. Students will enjoy reading this book, and will stay engaged with its wide variety of real-world data in the examples and exercises. The authors believe that it's important for students to learn and analyze both quantitative and categorical data. As a result, the text pays greater attention to the analysis of proportions than many other introductory statistics texts. Concepts are introduced first with categorical data, and then with quantitative data. This package includes MyStatLab, an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to personalize learning and improve results.With a wide range of interactive, engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts. MyStatLab should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Please be sure you have the correct ISBN and Course ID. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.

Discover a bold new vision for high school mathematics that empowers students through engaging, real-world learning.For decades, mathematics education has been guided by the visionary efforts of educators and leaders who recognized the importance of making math relevant, engaging, and accessible to all students. From the foundational principles set forth in the 1980 An Agenda for Action to the 2000 Standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) to 2014’s Principles to Actions and more, the landscape of math education has been shaped by a commitment to progress throughout the United States and Canada.Yet, challenges remain. Progress has been uneven, and many students still lack equitable access to the experiences that will empower them to navigate a world increasingly driven by data and technology. To address this, a team of mathematics teachers, leaders, and educational organizations, including NCTM, NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education, and the Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics (ASSM), came together to create a bold new vision for high school math education. High School Mathematics Reimagined, Revitalized, and Relevant is not just a publication; it is a call to action. It provides a thoughtful and practical guide for educators, school district leaders, and policymakers to rethink and restructure high school mathematics. By centering the student experience and emphasizing the development of mathematical and statistical processes, this work aims to make math not only relevant but essential for every student.This is not the final word but the next step in an ongoing journey. We owe it to our students—and to the future—to continue this work, to collaborate, and to ensure that every high school student has the opportunity to thrive in a world where mathematics is more important than ever.Join us in shaping the future of high school mathematics education, where every student can find purpose and possibility in the power of math.
