The UCLA Department of Statistics is pleased to announce the inauguration of a High School Teacher in Residence Program. The Teacher in Residence will serve a one-year term as a Lecturer in the Department of Statistics. He or she will teach undergraduate introductory Statistics classes, serve as a liason with the high school teaching community, and have opportunities to attend classes and seminars to enrich his or her Statistics knowledge. We are very excited to have Gretchen Davis join us as our first Teacher in Residence for the 00/01 academic year. Gretchen , a teacher at Santa Monica High School, is a Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellow in Statistics, has been recognized as the Santa Monica -Malibu Unified School District Mentor Teacher and Teacher of the Year. She has received the 2000 Konold Award for excellence in teaching, and the Polya award for teaching and service from the California Math Council. We hope that our department, with Gretchen's help, will provide a significant contribution to the local high school mathematics and statistics community. I would like to ask that you forward this notice to any teachers who might be interested in spending an academic year with UCLA Statistics. Our only requirement is that they be experienced in teaching Statistics (particularly the AP Statistics curriculum). Interested parties should contact Robert Gould at the address below. ____________ Robert Gould, Vice-chair Undergraduate Studies, UCLA Dept. of Statistics Director, Center for Teaching Statistics Office: MS 6151 US Mail: 8142 MS Building MC 155404, LA, CA 90095-5404 phone: 310-206-3381 fax1: 310-206-3381 fax2: 310-206-5658 www: http://www.stat.ucla.edu/~rgould *************************************************** I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. *************************************************** ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list and remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES are available at http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ =================================================================
