| Project Summary | We will develop online resources that enhance conceptual understanding and statistical computing skills for students in economics and more broadly:
Conducting quantitative research requires both an understanding of statistical concepts and techniques as well as knowledge and skills required when using statistical software. We will create learning objects that aid in both tasks and which create a direct link between the two types of knowledge. These resources will aid learning in introductory statistics courses (e.g. Econ 325, Poli 380) and upper level courses featuring the use of statistics in original research projects (Econ 490, Poli 492). We will create learning modules with each focusing on one major concept covered in Econ 325 and its application in Econ 490. Our modular resources will be easy to adapt in other courses using STATA. |
