Survey Instrument

Retrospective Pre-Post-Survey Instrument

Intro Stats Concept Inventory

We used a modified version of the Comprehensive Assessment of Outcomes in Statistics (CAOS) test originally developed by del Mas et al. [del Mas, R., Garfield, J., Ooms, A., and Chance, B. (2007), “Assessing Students’ Conceptual Understanding After a First Course in Statistics,” Statistics Education Research Journal, 6:28–58.] and modified by Chance et al. [Chance, B., Wong, J., and Tintle, N. (2016), “Student Performance in Curricula Centered on Simulation-Based Inference: A Preliminary Report,” Journal of Statistics Education, 24(3):114-126.]. The instrument was generously shared by Professor Nathan Tintle. Instructors wanting to use the test in their introductory statistics courses can request a copy from test developers directly or from the project team by emailing PI Sayed Mostafa at sabdelmegeed@ncat.edu.
