考試最重要的目的是幫助學生學習, 幫助學生檢視自己對於課程內容的了解程度.因此, 我並不是在測驗學生, 也無意考倒學生, 而是希望透過考題跟學生進行一場對話. 我期待學生在寫我的統計考卷時, 有那種跟球王費德勒捉對廝殺的快感, 而不是單純地跟冷冰冰的發球機對打. 當我費盡腦汁思考如何出一張精彩的考卷, 我也期待學生能夠從這份考題得到樂趣, 我期盼學生被愛司球 (Ace) 轟得灰頭土臉時, 也能打從心中驚呼一聲: "阿, 真是一記好球!"能夠打敗費神固然可喜可賀, 但是只要你跟著教練按部就班地做暖身操, 體能訓練, 揮空拍, 對打練習等, 然後裝備齊全地上場打球, </summary><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml'

高中數學科課程暫行綱要為何要加入「信心水準與信賴區間的解讀」?A:一、敘述性的統計在國中小已談了許多，事實上，連國中基測都已經用PR分數計算成績，若高中課綱仍停留在目前的層次，似乎只是複習國中小的內容，並未更上一層樓。二、信心水準與信賴區間的字眼經常出現在新聞報導，現代國民應該曉得它的意思。因此，暫綱強調信心水準與信賴區間的「解讀」，定位在通識教育的層次，不需探討太深的技術問題。Well, 關於這些理由, 我可以理解, 我亦不否認信心水準與信賴區間解讀的重要性, 然而, 我個人認為不宜在沒有足夠的機率統計理論下, 介紹信心水準與信賴區間. </summary><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml'
