Abstract
This webinar discusses issues and challenges in preparing teachers of statistics at the secondary and college level. We then provide a case study of a graduate level course taught at the University of Minnesota that focuses on developing excellent teachers of statistics. The course is based on the GAISE guidelines and helps the students develop both knowledge of teaching (pedagogical knowledge) and specific knowledge about teaching statistics (pedagogical content knowledge). Topics, readings, activities, assessments, and discussions are described. In addition, we discuss how the course was transformed from a face-to-face setting to an online environment.
