Teaching Statistics with Purpose: Bridging Practice, Pedagogy, and Inclusivity in a Data-Driven World

By Maria Allayioti, Professor of Management Practice at ESSEC Business School.

The Expanding Role of Statistics

Statistics play a pivotal role in today’s data-driven world. There is a high chance that, in a career lasting a few decades, a professional will be part of a project that demands a working knowledge of numbers, data, and their visualizations.

The way we teach statistics must reflect its growing importance in both professional and societal contexts. It should combine hands-on application with thoughtful interpretation, helping learners build analytical thinking skills while bridging the gap between classroom learning, industry practice and everyday experiences. Just as importantly, it must promote inclusivity by addressing gender dynamics.

Nurturing Inclusive Leaders: Exploring Pedagogy and Care in Higher Education

By the K-lab team.

This requires higher education institutions to think deeply about the link between pedagogy and inclusion: How to teach inclusion? How to teach inclusively? and how in societies where the caring economy is becoming increasingly central, how can education be considered as “care”.

With this perspective in mind, Estefania Santacreu-Vasut, Associate Dean for Pedagogy, along with the K-lab, have chosen to explore the theme of “pedagogy and inclusion” for this academic year 2023/2024. The first educational workshop took place on November, 17th.
