  • Newly digitized versions of the popular Computer Exercise questions for Chapters 1 to 12. These new questions require students to analyze a data set using their Stats software of choice and apply their understanding. Much like the current Homework sets, these are assignable exercises (powered by Aplia) provide students with robust and detailed feedback AND can be set to allow a student to take another variant of the question up 3 times.
  • Video Walk Throughs of a Problems and Computer Exercise, each from the end of the chapter. These step-by-step videos assist students in resolving key questions from the end of chapter. Both R and Stata software are used to solve a Computer Exercise problem in each chapter, helping the student administer and interpret the analysis.
  • Each chapter offers an assignable Homework problem set (powered by Aplia) that assesses students mastery of the theory in that chapter. Students receive robust feedback instantly upon submission. And the problem sets can be set to allow students to take another variant of the question up 3 times.
