| Scott Alberts is in his ninth year at Truman, and
teaches statistics, particularly those used in surveys.
He also serves as the faculty advisor to the
Student
Senate and the Director of the Senior Portfolio Project. He believes that statistics should be used to make the world
better. He researches quantitative methods for measuring behavior and
decision-making, and the general process of data collection as a part of
real-world projects. His central research investigates mathematics
anxiety, and looks to find ways to reduce anxiety, especially ways that also improve mathematics performance. He is also active at Trinity Episcopal Church, where he serves as the choirmaster and music coordinator. When not working, he likes games and puzzles, intellectual banter, good music, and bad television. His wife Hyun-Joo Kim also teaches statistics here at Truman and they juggle schedules so they can handle their two kids, Juni and Minu. |
