Allison Loves Math Podcast


Jun 8, 2021

In today’s podcast, I'm experimenting with a new type of episode format! There's no guest and it's going to be a short and quick episode geared towards Statistics students. If you’re a Statistics teacher, I encourage you to share this podcast episode or YouTube video with your class. It even comes with a quick assignment at the end: Answer the question, “Why is Statistics important for you?”

In this short episode for students, I discuss:

  • Why you should never take a class or spend time on things that are not important or meaningful.

  • How Statistics is relevant to our everyday lives and a crucial component to understanding the world.

  • The ways Statistics will prepare you for and impact your career, even if it’s a career that’s not STEM-related.

  • Why it’s important to take classes, like Statistics, that are challenging and confusing.
