Our philosophy of teaching statistics through case studies is described in a recent article appearing in The American Statistician, Vol. 53, No. 4, pp 370-376.
We have collected our labs into a text for advanced introductory statistics courses. A sample chapter, Maternal Smoking and Infant Health, can be found at this web site along with ideas on how to use our text in a course.
This web site provides the data used in Stat Labs, and answers to our students' frequently asked questions on how to use S-plus and R to analyze these data.
