Dear friends, now I have almost 20 references on articles to be used as
seminars in undergraduate courses of Quantitative Ecology but.....
several of them are not easy for such students and then I would like to
request that if you have a suggestion, please SEND me, until the end of
July, your reprint by e-mail (PDF) or a reprint by snail mail (see my
address below). I need to read the article to include only the material
matching with the original idea. I will send all the information for the
list in the next weeks. Thanks... Voltolini
My Original Message:
Dear friends, I am preparing an introductory course on Quantitative
Ecology for undergraduate students and I am looking for simple articles
to be used as examples in seminars. The idea is to use simple, short and
experimental studies as examples to show how statistical analysis is
important for a lab or a field biologist. I am thinking more in articles
using simple analysis like chi-square, t test, ANOVA, regression,
correlation, simple multivariate analysis, etc. and.... less in complex
analysis like time series, survival analysis and complex multivariate
models (the idea is to attract the attention of the students and not to
scare them !). If someone is interested, I can send my results for the
list and, in this way, we could start a "seminar directory" with files
to be shared with all interested people in teaching Ecology with a
quantitative approach! PDF and Word formatted texts are preferred
because I can send them back for everyone. Thanks for any help!
