Dear colleagues, As many of us in the vision science community who work in psychology departments may be teaching research methods and stats (or may have an interest into how that teaching is delivered) I thought the ad for the workshop below may be of relevance. Kind regards Jasna ---- Hello, We invite you to a workshop based upon a cross-UK survey of undergraduate teaching in study design and data analysis for Biology, Biomedical Science, Medicine and Psychology. The workshop aims to critically examine teaching practice with an eye on improving research reproducibility as a part of science reform. What can you gain from the workshop? * Cross-disciplinary perspective on the challenges faced and approaches to overcome them, and solidarity that comes from openly discussing challenges; * Resources for teaching/to influence teaching of stats in an attendees' own institution; * Opportunity to benchmark your teaching programs versus those nationwide; * Opportunity to gain "outside the box" (cross-discipline) perspective on why and how to teach study design and analysis; * Knowledge of approaches and software people are using across UK to do/teach data analysis. The workshop will occur 12 June, 2024, at the University of Manchester. We anticipate the fee will be less than £20 (and will most likely be free). Below, we provide links to (1) view the workshop's itinerary and (2) to sign up to indicate your general interest (we are gauging interest at the moment for organisational purposes; registration will follow).
