I've just come to the end of a 4-year tenure, redeveloping & teaching a flexible online first, textbook free, skills-focused and accessible first year psychology unit.
In this time, I've taught 5000+ students. I have opinions I'll roll out here, but ask me questions. #HPS111 1/n To start with, we chucked the textbook, lectures, and conventional readings, and replaced them with weekly video series (each video ~12 mins) with time specific overlaid links to primary articles using @H5PTechnology. That's most of the on-campus teaching gone, back in 2017. Why?

So I heard about a really bad take today, that things that are available free online aren't good enough to be worth money.

To counteract that rubbish call, here I tender a list of free, online #rstats books that I recommend above paid ones #OER
1/many This list (of course) begins with @djnavarro's Learning statistics with R. Want a brilliant, approachable entry to both statistics and #rstats when you have no prior background, I can recommend nothing else.
