Our academic goals are simple, to help faculty teach more modern and data-driven courses, to help make concepts and their application clear and concrete, and to make getting, learning and using JMP as easy as possible for students. We think these goals better support the practice of statistics and help students see the value and relevance of statistics in their lives and their future endeavors. If you share these course goals, we want you to know about some resources that should help you along the way.
The JMP academic team is also excited to share some good news about these teaching resources. To streamline access to key resources we have redesigned and reorganized the academic website at JMP.com/academic. Faculty will now find teaching resources (e.g., step-by-step guides, videos and case studies) organized by course area at www.jmp.com/courses. This is an easy button where each course collection contains all of the relevant JMP resources organized by the common sequence and curriculum.
Each course link brings up a consistent set of Essential resources including textbooks that integrate JMP for that specific course area, one-page step-by-step guides and short videos (updated for JMP 16), and case studies that provide real-world scenarios and solution paths along with exercises that can be assigned. We have many new case studies that have just been posted (you can see a list of all cases at www.jmp.com/cases), and all exercises in the cases now have solutions that are available to adopting faculty only. We consider these resources to be more foundational to modern data-driven courses that seek to teach concepts through applications and by example.
In addition to these “essentials,” we also provide course Enhancements such as teaching applets, lab activities and additional data sets. These are designed to augment and enrich a class where appropriate. Most course collections also include Additional Resources such as online courses and content. These are helpful when teaching online or where you might want to offer additional content in a course. All resources at JMP are free to use and distribute to students by faculty adopters.
In addition to these teaching resources, the JMP academic team provides regular live webinars for faculty and students at www.jmp.com/academic-webinars where you can also register for our first webinars of the fall, "JMP 101: Teaching Statistics with JMP" on Aug. 25 and "Resources for Teaching with JMP" on Sept. 8. You can also access and view many webinar recordings from past seasons. Finally, if you have any questions about getting, using or teaching with JMP, do not hesitate to reach out to us at academic@jmp.com.
