A case study in the e-assessment of statistics for non-specialists (2021)
Journal Article

The need to be able to choose, perform and interpret the results from appropriate statistical tests is ubiquitous in many STEM disciplines and beyond. In this case study, we illustrate a learning and assessment approach that has been used successfull... Read More about A case study in the e-assessment of statistics for non-specialists.

In-class e-testing of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We report on our experience of running in-class e-Tests for a new Level 1 Business Decision Making module taken by 800 Business School students at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol). The module comprises a one semester course coverin... Read More about In-class e-testing of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability.

Changing times – A decade of empirical insight into the experience of rail passengers in Great Britain (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Elsevier Ltd In the last decade the number of rail passenger journeys in Great Britain has increased by half and car trips per person are down by a tenth. Meanwhile there has been significant growth in internet use and ownership of smartphones...

Open access statistics resources (2016)
Journal Article

In this paper we illustrate an open access statistics resource related to the statistical activities involved in choosing and carrying out an appropriate one sample test for location (mean or median) on a randomly generated data set. The development... Read More about Open access statistics resources.

Using DEWIS and R for multi-staged statistics e-Assessments (2016)
Journal Article

© The Author 2015. We demonstrate how the DEWIS e-Assessment system may use embedded R code to facilitate the assessment of students' ability to perform involved statistical analyses. The R code has been written to emulate SPSS output and thus the st... Read More about Using DEWIS and R for multi-staged statistics e-Assessments.

Creating statistics e-assessments using Dewis with embedded R code (2016)
Journal Article

We report on the creation of statistics e-assessments using the Dewis system with embedded R code. Dewis is a fully algorithmic open-source e-assessment system designed and developed at the University of the West of England, Bristol (UWE). Dewis’ abi...

Using technology to inspire and enhance the learning of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability (2015)
Book Chapter

In this paper we illustrate how we have used technology to teach and efficiently assess statistics within a Level 2 research skills module delivered to Business School students. The student cohort was a large diverse group of non-mathematicians and t... Read More about Using technology to inspire and enhance the learning of statistics in a large cohort of diverse ability.

Concentrations of Cd, Zn and Cu in sediments and brown shrimp (Crangon crangon L.) from the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel, UK (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Cd, Zn and Cu levels were determined in sediments and Crangon crangon from 9 sites in the Severn Estuary/Bristol Channel during winter 1999. Metal levels in both shrimp and sediments varied significantly between sites and were related to proximity of...

High resolution measurement and modelling of magnetic domain structures in epitaxial FePd (001) L10 films with perpendicular magnetization (2001)
Journal Article

Magnetic domain structures in two 50 nm thick chemically-ordered FePd (001) epitaxial films with different perpendicular anisotropies have been studied using Lorentz microscopy. Domain and domain wall structures vary significantly according to the ma...
