Conferences |
IASE organizes yearly diverse kinds of conferences of different sizes and scopes, and sponsors other events and collaborations, in order to respond to the diverse needs of the dynamic field of statistics education. Thus, every year you can find somewhere around the world a relevant gathering with a focus on statistics education. Proceedings or lists of papers presented at the conferences listed on this page can be viewed in the Conference Proceedings. ICOTSThe ICOTS conferences, held by IASE every 4 years, are the most important events on the international statistics education calendar. ICOTS stands for International Conference on Teaching Statistics.
World Statistics Congresses of the ISIThese are the main conferences of the International Statistical Institute (ISI) and occur every two years. IASE organizes and sponsors sessions on statistics education at each ISI congress, creating a conference-within-a-conference. The 64th World Statistics Congress (WSC64➶), organized by the International Statistical Institute (ISI) will be held in Ottawa 2023.
IASE Satellite ConferencesThese conferences are held immediately before or after the ISI World Statistics Congress, each on a different theme. The Satellites usually host about 80-120 participants and enable delegates a further focus on statistics education in a relaxed, more informal and intimate atmosphere. To see papers presented at these meetings refer to Conference Proceedings.
