STatistics Education Web (STEW) is an online resource that provides peer-reviewed lesson plans for anyone who teaches statistical concepts in their classrooms. This includes K–12 math, science, and social studies teachers, as well as teachers at the college level. STEW lesson plans follow the recommendations of the Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) Report, and many are organized around the statistical problem-solving process outlined in GAISE: formulate a statistical question; collect data; analyze data; and interpret results in context.
Since 2016, STEW has been affiliated with the online journal Statistics Teacher , which offers articles about classroom practice, announcements, lesson plans, and other resources. The lesson plan section of Statistics Teacher often features STEW lesson plans, but all STEW lesson plans (including those published after 2016) are archived and available on this page.
Initially, STEW was directed to K–12 teachers only, and the organization of lessons below still allows teachers to navigate by grade level; however, there aren’t hard divisions between age groups. For example, a high-school lesson may be effective for college students in an intro stats class. Further, there are often important connections between concepts at different levels. Searching by topic or type of data may bring up lessons in rich contexts that can be modified for the appropriate level. Try using Control + F or Command + F to search.
Types of data:
- One categorical variable
- Two categorical variables
