Registering for the course in ThomsonNOW

ThomsonNOW is the commercial web-based courseware that comes with the book. It is a resource with many components we will use in the class (e.g., units, exercises).

When you purchase the textbook bundle, you will receive an access code for CyberStats.  

We will use an additional “Course Material” within ThomsonNOW called “Cyberstats”.

We will use it to visualize the behavior of statistical concepts through the use of conceptual software.

How to signup and register for a ThomsonNOW account
