Statistics Instructors in Cyberspace is a new ASA special interest group that was established in October of 2014. The purpose of this group is to support statistics educators who teach online courses and/or have an interest in online teaching and online learning. Through participation in this professional community, educators will have opportunities to meet, connect with, and commiserate with other online educators; learn about new methods and tools appropriate for teaching online courses; and work toward an improvement in the quality of online statistics education for students. The group plans to meet regularly at the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) and maintain an electronic discussion list.
