The Way We Teach Basic Statistics in Medicine

Abstract
This article describes an introductory, biostatistics course that combines the teaching of basic statistics with an introduction to use of the computer for statistical analysis. The course emphasises a problem-oriented approach to learning in which the student utilises the computer to minimise the laborious and error-prone task of data analysis. In this age of rapid technological advancement, both statistics and computer skill will no doubt prove valuable to the physician.
