IASE/IAOS Satellite Conference to 2013 World Statistics Congress

The International Association for Statistics Education is pleased to
announce that the 8th Satellite Conference to the World Statistics Congress
will be a joint conference with the International Association for Official
Statistics and will be held in Macao from August 22nd (Thu) to 24th (Sat),

recent biennial World Statistics Congress. Next year we have the exciting
prospect of meeting with IAOS, an Association with which we share many
activities.

On August 23rd (Fri), the conference will be under a special theme
ÃâÅstatistics for education: youth and official statisticsÃâÂ, bringing
together IASE and IAOS participants to focus on official Statistics in
conjunction with education and youth. Below are the topics that will be
discussed under the theme.
1. Official statistics resources for schools and tertiary education
2. Disseminating official statistics into the real world of youth
3. Training young statisticians
4. Educational uses of youth statistics.
The umbrella theme of the conference is ÃâÅStatistics Education for
ProgressÃâÂ. All submissions addressing the theme are welcome. The
Conference will be conducted in English.

Participants who would like to present their research in the joint IASE/IAOS
Satellite Conference are requested, in the case of a presentation related to
Official Statistics, to submit their abstract to Sharleen Forbes

area of Statistics Education, to Brian Phillips (bphillips@swin.edu.au).
Questions of a general nature about the Satellite should be directed to
Taerim Lee (trlee691@gmail.com), the conference and programme chair.
