Russ, My mailing address is at the bottom of this message. I am very interested in seeing the CD software.   Many thanks, Stan   >>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<< Stanley H.

ESTAT, software for exploring the relationship between data and statistics using eyeball-estimation techniques.  The other (Hurlburt, 2001) describes "lectlets," computer-based interactive audiovisual statistics lectures. Journal reports can't easily convey how computer software actually works, so if you teach introductory statistics and you'd like to see the actual software described in these articles, e-mail me your snail-mail address off list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I'll mail you a CD that contains both ESTAT and a complete set of lectlets. Britt, M.A., Sellinger, J., & Stillerman, C.S (2002).  A review of ESTAT: An innovative program for teaching statistics.  Teaching of Psychology, 29, 73-75. Hurlburt, R. T. (2001).   "Lectlets" deliver content at a distance: Introductory statistics as a case study.  Teaching of Psychology, 28, 15-20. The CDs are supplied courtesy of Wadsworth, publishers of my statistics textbooks. --Russ _________________________________________________________________ Russell T.
