DESCRIPTION:This talk will report on the design of an introductory probabi
 lity module intended for implementation at scale within the English educat
 ional system as part of the epiSTEMe programme of redesign research aimed 
 at improving the teaching and learning of mathematics and science at early
 -secondary level. The approach taken by the module places particular empha
 sis on encouraging dialogic discussion\, capitalising on contrasts within 
 and between everyday and scientific thinking about chance.
