Indiana Section of the Mathematical Association of America
Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching
of Mathematics

Citation to

David S. Moore

The Indiana Section Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics annually observes the accomplishments and contributions of Section members who have been recognized as extraordinarily successful teachers in the mathematical sciences and whose teaching effectiveness has been shown to have had influence beyond their own institutions.

For a quarter of a century, the recipient of the 1994 Award has pursued a distinguished career as a statistician and statistics educator. He has been recognized by his students and colleagues at Purdue University as one of the institution's best teachers. Whether teaching statistics for freshman liberal arts students or graduate students, he has enriched and influenced their lives and careers.

He has been at the forefront of statistics teaching reform at both the pre-college and college levels. His numerous published writings in this field include textbooks as well as contributions to journals and other publications of such organizations as the American Statistical Association, the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences, the Mathematical Association of America, and the National Research Council. His work as statistics content developer for the Annenberg/Corporation for Public Broadcasting video projects "For All Practical Purposes: Introduction to Contemporary Mathematics" and "Against All Odds: Inside Statistics" and the National Science Foundation-supported video modules "Statistics: Decisions Through Data" distinguish him as a premier innovator in the field of video telecourse production in the mathematical sciences.

It is my privilege to present this award to Professor David S. Moore of Purdue University.

Stanley L. Stephens, Chair
