A beta version of new interactive teaching modules using survey and other data has just been released by the UK Data Service, who would like comments and feedback on them. Some modules use PSPP and SPSS to manage and analyse data. SRMS and SPSS listers who use survey and "big" data in teaching will find them interesting, as will researchers and students. They can be accessed via the main menu: https://www.ukdataservice.ac.uk/use-data/data-skills-modules and UKDS are asking users to send feedback and suggestions for enhancement to: John F Hall MA (Cantab) Dip Ed (Dunelm) [Retired academic survey researcher] Email: [hidden email] Website: Journeys in Survey Research Course: Survey Analysis Workshop (SPSS) From: Quantitative_methods_teaching [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Vanessa Higgins via Quantitative_methods_teaching · Hi all · · We hope these Data Skills Modules will be useful for those teaching quants methods (in practical sessions or for pre-reading/self-learning for students).
