Teaching Biostatistics in Medicine and Allied Health Sciences (EPUB)

About the Book

Written by Damian J. J. Farnell and Renata Medeiros Mirra, this book is focused on the theory and practice of teaching biostatistics to students in the life sciences. The authors put specific emphasis on medical and dental trainees and researchers and how biostatistics pedagogy is crucially important to biomedical research and evidence-based health care. This book delivers valuable insights into teaching biostatistics to medical and dental students from some of the most prominent biostatisticians.

The book is structured into three major parts, starting with teaching and learning statistics in medicine and allied health sciences. It then discusses the move to online learning and effective use of online teaching methods, especially with the impact of COVID-19. Finally, computer tools and resources are described and evaluated for their effectiveness in biostatistics pedagogy. The book provides unique insights and practical approaches to teaching biostatistics with a considerable attention to online resources and effective teaching practices.
