E-learning plays an important role in education as it supports online education viacomputer networks and provides educational services by utilising information technologies. We present a case study describing the development of an Arabic language elearning course in statistics. Discussed are...

Students of introductory courses consider statistics as particularly difficult,as the understanding of the underlying concepts may require more time andenergy than for other disciplines. For decades statisticians have tried to enhanceunderstanding with the help of technical solutions such as...

Along with many others, we agree that a modern education in statistics needs toincorporate the practical analysis of real datasets, which are usually more complex than the common examples found in standard textbooks. The software used in the teaching of statistics includes standard spreadsheet...

Modern computing equipment is present at schools and universities at all levelsof education. 4 In the statistical sciences computers offer great opportunities toenrich the learning process by the means of e.g. animations, software integrationor on-the-fly computations. A personal review of...

Without doubt modern education in statistics must involve practical, computer-based data analysis but the question arises whether and how computational elements should be integrated into the canon of methodological education. Should the student see and study high-level programming code right at...

With the increase of e-learning by universities and educational institutes in the worldthrough more electronic platforms, come the questions to researchers, educators anddesigners of electronic platforms about feasibility and using this method of learning.Are we achieving the desired goals and...

We study beliefs and choices in a repeated normal-form game. In addition to a baseline treatment with common knowledge of the game structure and feedback about choices in the previous period, we run treatments (i) without feedback about previous play, (ii) with no information about the...

Three results emerge from a simple experiment on imitation. First, I find behavior which strongly suggests an intention to imitate. Second, players imitate successful other players rather than repeating successful actions. Third, to find imitation examples, players use several periods of memory....
