Kevin Ross and Jingchen (Monika) Hu
Additional discussion questions
Section 1: Curriculum & content
- What is the status of (Bayesian) statistics curriculum in your department / institution?
- Are you interested in introducing / developing Bayesian ideas into your curriculum? Why?
- Do you have any previous experience with teaching Bayesian ideas? At what level?
- Are you interested in designing a Bayesian module or a course (or both)?
- If you are designing a Bayesian module, what courses do you plan to add it into? What topics will you cover?
- If you are designing a Bayesian course, what level(s) do you plan for? Intro, intermediate, or advanced?
- What is the student body that the module / course will serve?
- What are the pre-requisities for your module / course?
- What role does calculus / probability play in your module / course?

- Do you plan to include a project component in your course? Why or why not?
- What are the content challenges you foresee, especially given what’s presented in the workshop?
- How much computing do you expect to require of students?
- What Bayesian computing resources are you familiar with? What are their appealing features?
- Do you plan to ask students to code their own MCMC algorithms (Gibbs, Metropolis, or Metropolis-Hastings)? Why or why not?
- What are the computing challenges you foresee, especially given what’s presented in the workshop?
- What resources for teaching and learning Bayesian ideas are you familiar with? Please share!
- What resources do you think you will use from the workshop?
- What resources do you wish were available?
- A GitHub repo on Vassar’s Bayesian Statistics course material (lectures, labs, homework, cases studies etc.)
- A GitHub repo on various resources for undergraduate Bayesian education
- The Undergraduate Bayesian Education Network with resources and an associated Slack channel for you to join!
