Abstract:
The author's approach to teaching an integrative unit to a small group of master's level Applied Statistics students in 2000-2001 is described. Details of the various activities such as data analysis, reading and discussion of papers, and training in consultancy skills are given, as also are details of the assessment. The students' and lecturer's views of the unit are discussed.
