each time you use your word processor, you get better AT using it AND its
features
same holds for a decent stat package
the more students practice with it, the better they get with it
and the instructor should help them in this
minitab for example, has tried in recent releases to enhance the amount of
online help it gives ... which is good ... NOT just about how to use
minitab but, more info about the procedures being completed ...
personally, i think (and i know many will disagree) any instructor who does
NOT require students in the first course to learn SOME package ... their
way around it and how to use basic features ... is NOT helping them learn
how to do analysis the way data analysis is done in the real world
