DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/ESME/34/">De
 signing an Inductive Course for Probability & Statistics</a>\nby Niek de K
 leijn (TU Delft) as part of Online Seminar On Undergraduate Mathematics Ed
 ucation\n\n\nAbstract\nInductive teaching flips the order of traditional m
 athematics education. Instead of rigidly introducing concepts and theorems
  and then considering examples and practice problems to understand them\, 
 we start by letting students consider the problems and examples and then e
 ncourage them to come up with\nthe relevant concepts themselves. Inductive
  teaching can often have a positive effect on the motivation of students t
 o master the content of a mathematics course. In this talk I will describe
  our attempt to incorporate inductive teaching into our interfaculty proba
 bility and statistics courses. Mathematics is a fundamentally deductive fi
 eld of study\, this leads to dilemmas on both a didactical and social leve
 l. I will consider these dilemmas in particular.\n
