Daren S. Starnes

Daren Starnes has taught a variety of statistics courses — including Introductory Statistics, AP® Statistics, and Mathematical Statistics — for 25 years. He earned his MA in mathematics from the University of Michigan and his BS in mathematics from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Daren has been a Reader, Table Leader, and Question Leader for the AP® Statistics exam for over 20 years. As a College Board consultant since 1999, Daren has led hundreds of workshops for AP® Statistics teachers throughout the United States and overseas. He frequently presents in-person and online sessions about statistics teaching and learning for high school and college faculty. Daren is an active member of the American Statistical Association (ASA), the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC), and the International Association for Statistical Education (IASE). He served on the ASA/NCTM Joint Committee on the Curriculum in Statistics and Probability for six years. While on the committee, he edited the Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) Report: A Pre-K–12 Curriculum Framework report. Daren is coauthor of The Practice of Statistics (now in its seventh edition), the best-selling textbook for AP® Statistics, and of Statistics and Probability with Applications (now in its fourth edition), a popular choice for high school introductory statistics. Daren and his wife Judy enjoy traveling, rambling walks, jigsaw puzzles, and spending time with their three sons and seven grandchildren.
