New self-paced Statistics and R module on QMplus
The Researcher Development team have put together a new online module for researchers. Introduction to Statistics for Researchers is a self-paced online module and has over 20-hours of learning content across five topics that mirrors the lessons and exercises in our Introduction to Statistics course (RD-QMA-021). It is intended for researchers who want to learn some fundamental concepts in statistical analysis and how to use the statistical software R.
 
Hosted on QMplus, you will be guided by instructive text and bespoke videos that you can follow along with practice exercises. There are a number of activities and puzzles to help you test your comprehension as you go. We have also put together a bunch of curated resources and further guidance from texts available in our library, YouTube videos, or LinkedIn Learning content.
