Learning statistics is sexy. Almost every person on earth will benefit from learning some foundational ideas of statistics. This is true because statistics forms the basis of our everyday world just as much as do science, technology, and politics. Google, Netflix, Twitter, Facebook, OKCupid, Match.com, Amazon, iTunes, and the Federal Government are just a handful of the companies and organizations that use statistics on a daily basis. Journalism, political science, biology, sociology, psychology, graphic design, economics, sports science, and dance are all disciplines that have made use of statistical methodology. The materials in this book will introduce you to the seminal ideas underlying the discipline of statistics. In addition, they have been designed with your learning in mind. As you engage in and use the skills, concepts and ideas introduced in the material, you will find yourself thinking about data and evidence in a different way.

The research presented in this volume is the culmination of a two-year process that began in August 2013. That summer, 26 statistics education researchers met in Two Harbors, Minnesota for the Eighth International Research Forum on Statistical Reasoning, Thinking, and Literacy (SRTL-8). The theme for the forum was reasoning about uncertainty in the context of making informal statistical inferences.Over a period of seven days, this group of researchers presented, discussed, and examined research related to the forums theme of reasoning about uncertainty in the context of making informal statistical inferences. The research at SRTL-8 covered many different facets (e.g., use of technology and students' classroom articulation) and explored several different populations of students (primary, secondary, and tertiary levels), adults, and even teachers of statistics. The chapters in this book constitute a subset of that research, and reflect the variation in both the populations and topics studied.
