Dear all,
We have two announcements - sorry for any cross-posting
1) MLwiN 2.18 release
2) On-line Stata tutorials
1) MLwiN 2.18 is now available. Some minor new features/bug fixes have been
introduced, e.g. Allowed copy/paste of categories between columns, and Fixed
potential problem when adding/removing categories from a column. For bug fixes
go to: http://www.cmm.bristol.ac.uk/MLwiN/bugs/fixes.shtml
New features in MLwiN 2.18:

Upgrade to latest version:

2) The Centre for Multilevel Modelling is very pleased to announce the addition
of Stata practicals to our free on-line multilevel modelling course. These give
detailed instructions of how to carry out a range of analyses in Stata,
starting from multiple regression and progressing through to multilevel
modelling of continuous and binary data.
Topics covered:

Sample PDF documents which can be viewed without the need to log in:

http://www.cmm.bris.ac.uk/learning-training/module-samples/5-Practicals-Stata-sample.pdf
http://www.cmm.bris.ac.uk/learning-training/module-samples/6-Practicals-Stata-sample.pdf
http://www.cmm.bris.ac.uk/learning-training/module-samples/7-Practicals-Stata-sample.pdf
The Stata practicals are complete and ready to view, though some of the quizzes
refer only to MLwiN. We are currently working on revised versions of the quiz
questions to make them more relevant to Stata users. We will let you know when
we have completed these.
Example of a Stata tutorial (you will need to register/log in):
'Stata P 3.1: Regression with a Single Continuous Explanatory Variable'
http://www.cmm.bris.ac.uk/lemma/mod/lesson/view.php?id=234&pageid=866
This course is free. We ask only that you complete a registration form if you
have not done so already, as fully as possible, to help us to conduct research
into learning multilevel modelling and to improve our materials. We hope that
this is a valuable resource for anyone who would like to learn more about
multilevel modelling and how to apply these methods using MLwiN and Stata.
Good luck and do let us know if you have any problems registering, logging on
or with any aspect of the learning materials.
With very best wishes,
Hilary
