……这种课通常是需要用到一点统计学的社科专业学生选的。（我自己从没教过。）先修要求就是一点初等代数。典型的教材是 Mario Triola 的《Elementary Statistics》（目录见这里：https://www.amazon.com/Elementary-Statistics-13th-Mario-Trio...）。学生们上课时还会用到 Minitab。不过我们也有概率论与数理统计课，用的是……
…such a course which was typically taken by social science majors who needed some statistics in their fields. (I never taught it.) The prereq was just a little algebra. A typical text was Mario Triola's "Elementary Statistics" (see here for the table of contents: https://www.amazon.com/Elementary-Statistics-13th-Mario-Trio...). The students used Minitab as part of the course. But we also had prob & stat courses which used…
Couple of points, which as a former seller I suspect you know, but students often do not. 1) There is no best book for a subject. What suits a class in Elementary Statistics in one place or program might be all wrong for another. 2) There's a lot more to developing texts (or, as you say, curriculum) than people think. Besides a book, there are exercises and answers to the…

有几点，作为以前卖过书的人我猜你懂，但学生往往不明白。1）任何学科都没有所谓“最好的一本书”。在某个地方或某个项目里适合某堂初等统计学（Elementary Statistics）课的教材，换到另一个地方可能完全不合适。2）编写教材（或者像你说的，开发课程大纲）要考虑的事情远比大家想的多得多。除了教材本身，还有习题以及……的答案。
