Dear all,
I am involved in a bid to update the way that statistics is taught to the
medical undergraduates here in Sheffield. As part of the background to the bid
we were wondering if anyone had any information on the following:
(1) Are there any possible gender issues in the attitudes/performance of
students
(2) Is there any evidence to suggest that gender and attitudes/performance in
stats are linked?
(3) Are attitudes/performance linked to entry qualifications/background
in maths for undergraduates?
I'd be grateful for any thoughts you may have or pointers as to where to look
for answers to the above questions. I will of course post all replies to
allstat
Thanks
Jenny
