Description | The point of these proceedings is to describe the teaching process of an applied statistics course that is offered by the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics on the Masaryk University in Brno to students of the Anthropology study programme. Teaching statistics to students of non-mathematical study programmes is in general a difficult matter. Therefore, we aim to make is as easy for the students as possible. To fulfill this goal, we employ a collection of solved statistics exercises, worksheets, along with friendly and open mindset. We succeed in motivating students to use statistical methods in practice despite raised difficulty of the course. |
