A quick follow-up on Beth's comment re: assessment.

1. We are offering a $100 stipend for participating.

2. We'd love to have others at your institution participate also (especially non-users) so feel free to share the link.

3. The pre-post tests are multiple choice, offered online and are a mix of concepts and attitudes questions. We'll provide you a custom report on your students performance when the semester ends.

4. There is an option to include some additional questions on your exams as well if you'd like.

5. You are welcome to participate again this semester, even if you did in the fall.

Hi everyone and happy new year!

Just wanted to let you know about two new topics with postings on the SBI blog (https://www.causeweb.org/sbi/) awaiting your comments.

- Should we teach bootstrapping

- Incorporating student projects
We are also still looking for individuals willing to give some of our common assessment items (multiple choice pre/post, a few open ended), ESPECIALLY if you are NOT doing much with simulation-based inference J  Full details, including a link to sign up, are located here at http://homepages.dordt.edu/ntintle/assessment_intro.pdf.
 
Thanks,
