The Quantitative Methods Hub at the Department of Education, University of Oxford, offers its Advanced Quantitative Methods Summer School, this year consisting of seven different on-line courses running during three calendar weeks in May (in Oxford parlance these are called weeks 2, 3 and 4 of Trinity Term; 4-21/5/2021).

The courses require a basic understanding of multiple regression modelling or other multivariate techniques. Students and staff are welcome to attend one, some or all days by signing up using this portal https://www.oxforduniversitystores.co.uk/conferences-and-events/department-of-education/events/advanced-quantitative-methods-summer-school-2021.

The courses will take place online, and include a mixture of pre-recorded lectures and demonstrations, synchronous lectures, workshops and questions & answer sessions. Synchronous session sessions will run in zoom. Links to materials and zoom-sessions will be sent to participants. You will use R-studio and various R-modules, and Mplus (Mplus demo) during the courses. The teaching format will vary slightly from course to course (please see details for each course below).
