Who am I?

I am a National Teaching Fellow (2003) and an Honorary Teaching Fellow Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Engineering Science of the Faculty of Engineering and Computing at Coventry University.

I was associated with the sigma Centre of Excellence in Mathematics and Statistics Support, and from 2008-2010 with the More Maths Grads project.

The aim of these pages

is to provide an informal guide to a wide variety of resources which I have personally visited and investigated. These include a guide to the rich but confusing National Statistics site, places to find data, teaching resource sites which contain valuable data for examples or are just pure fun with a purpose.

There are pages relating to surveys and questionnaires, some good reads of journals and on-line statistics books, and mathematics sites.  Under the Excel section are downloadable spreadsheets showing you 'how', including those produced for a variety of mathematics conferences.
