DeSTRESS Project

De–STRESS: Depository of Resources for Statistics in Social Sciences is a project funded until August 2011, but preserved by the Economics Network, to share and create resources to promote statistical literacy in four disciplines: Economics, Geography, Politics and Sociology. The project is led by Rebecca Taylor at Nottingham Trent University and the Economics Network is one of the partners.

Visit the main DeSTRESS site or see economics-specific resources.

The project is an opportunity for the academic community to share resources that are currently hidden away in intranets and VLEs, and make them openly available while retaining legal ownership and the right to be credited.

The team have created a "pick and mix" set of new resources, including video, an assessment question bank and some interactive graphs. See the METAL project for related resources in Maths for Economics.

See the DeSTRESS printable brochure (PDF) for an overview of Open Educational Resources and their application to statistics
