Subject: Addr: Proposed faculty bus tour to Eastern Europe & Western Russi

Hi, EDSTAT-Lers. I'm a university administrator who teaches introduction
to statistics to nursing students and enjoy the conversation about PC
packages and creative teaching methods. I'd welcome health-related
examples.

My husband and I are organizing a Univ. faculty tour July 31-Aug 15 with stops
in Frankfurt, Berlin, Warsaw, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Minsk, Novgorod,
and Helsinki. In addition to the cultural and historic sites, we'd love to
meet counterparts at colleges, universities, and/or technical schools in
these cities.  If you live in one of these cities and would like to meet
us, or if you'd like information about joining such a tour, please contact
me. Ground cost (under $2,500 US) includes admissions, full-time
interpreter/guide, air conditioned bus,accommodations, many meals.

your interest in teaching nursing students and "creative teaching methods" and
PC software.

 Bob has taught a one-semester course to nursing students using the
  BUSINESS MYSTAT Package and the book INTRODUCTION TO LINEAR MODELS by Ward
  and Jennings.   His approach is an effort to give the students some "real"
 capability to do some practical research in a short period of time.  The
 approach is to use a Prediction/Regression/Linear Models approach to
 synthesize the many seemingly-different procedures used in the pre-computer
 days. But furthermore the students might be able to create new models to
answer unusual questions that do not fit the "standard"computing procedures.

Subject:      Price of textbooks

Can somebody explain why, in these days of computerized typesetting and
typesetting languages, the price of textbooks continues to escalate in
such an unbelievable way?  For instance, a paperback copy of W.Fuller's
Survival Analysis was purchased by my data analyst yesterday for ~$46.
This is about 160 pages, paperback.

Perhaps I am naive, but these prices seem grotesque.  Is someone aware
of the economics (breakouts for author, publisher, materials, distribution,
marketing) that can explain them to the rest of us?  When IMS publishes
monographs, they are much cheaper than for profit publishers (this goes
under the heading "You needed a PhD to figure this out?").  However, the
discrepancy is not 20 %, but 120 %.  What's going on?

Subject:      Health Science students

    Hi! EDSTAT-Lers!

I note with interest the recent discussion on Health Science students.

I have embarked on a university-funded project in an attempt to make life easier
 for Health Science (Nursing) students hitting statistics for the first time.

   The idea is, initially, to investigate what strategies/resources are being
used in the various tertiary institutions, aimed at maximising the quality of
learning (of statistics) by Health Science students. Of particular interest,
 would be those pertaining to distance education (external) teaching, however
 methods for internals will also be investigated.

   The move to a university setting for Health Science training is a fairly
recent event in this state, and therefore it would be beneficial to build on
the experiences of those educators who have already been down this track.

   If you fit this category, or can refer me to those that do, I would be
grateful for any information with which you can provide me:
   strategies, resources, student types/profile, any evaluations made
 (informal/formal), anything you have found useful, ... a list of "do's" &
 "don't's" !! ...
   Thanking you in advance,

I know of a graduate level course with a $75 text in which 90% of the
class photocopied the text at $.05/page x 300 pages.  A few
financially destitute students hit the reduction key and were able to
get two book pages for $.05; I don't condone this - the publisher,
author and bookstore suffer and stealing *is* illegal and immoral.
However, reality is that not all (graduate) students can afford to
pay $200-300/semester for texts; the ubiquitous photocopier + low
esteem most students have for textbook publishers = cheap text.

I can not agree with your oppinion. You can not compare the
situation in pre '18 Russia or British India with Slovak republic.
Slovak republic has the parliament established by the will of free
people in free ellection. This parliament is the source of law
and ANYONE in SR has to act in accord with this law. If anybody
considers that some law is bad he can express his oppinion in next
free ellection by voting for those sharing his oppinion.

One can clearly see from your example, what the consequences of
unrespecting law in the russian case are like.

Mr Romanchik,
it is just about some two weaks ago I had heard on BBC that British
government is about to introduce penal code for those journalists that
are not able to distinguish within freedom of speach and lies that
harm individual and common rights of people. Is it so that UK is
slowly reverting to communist regime? I don't think so. The same
aplies to Slovakia.
The marked sentence in RFE posting is nice example how it is easy to
change the meaning of words by forgeting to say that Maciar( and not
Meciar only)considers speaking about civil unrests,.. to be worth of
punishment only in case that it is not actually happened.
This is also the reason why I prefer BBC and CNN as a source of
information. I think that the calls for civil disobedience ( I
understand under this term the call for violating constitution and
law) is already criminal act.
But this issue was discused on this list lately. I have in mind the
strong disagreement when Mr Szelepcsenyi outlined his idea about the
chart of journalism. The stronger was my surprice when just slightly
modified idea was presented by british government.

I never heard it untill yet. It, of course, does not imply that
this incident had not actually happened. May be someone else can
throw some light into this issue.

Subject:      More book suggestions

I remembered another great Czech author: Ladislav Klima. Extremely
weird stuff (de Sade and Huysmans come to mind). Not published
during the communist era, but several of his books came out in
the past 3 years. "Slavna Nemesis" (Famous Nemesis) is the best
known title, I think. Don't know of any English translations.
