Abstract

Mathematics educators have discovered they must become familiar with students' preexisting stochastic conceptions before they try to teach the mathematical concepts of probability. It is important for us to foster a notion of probability that can be shared among our students, so they can communicate effectively with one another about stochastic situations. (Shaughnessy, 1992, pp. 470,488)
