Twenty-two case studies, ten training workshops, two handbook chapters, one two-day conference, no gold rings. We've had a great year; hope you have too.

The Handbook for Economics Lecturers has a new chapter: "The effective incorporation of research in undergraduate econometrics" by Steve Cook, Duncan Watson, and Peter Dawson includes three detailed case studies. economicsnetwork.ac.uk/handbook/eco...

The 2nd case study in the Replication and Reproduction series by Steve Cook, Duncan Watson & Peter Dawson is out: "expose learners to the progressive nature of [research] where findings can be revisited using more recent data & longer sample spans." #TeachEcon economicsnetwork.ac.uk/showcase/coo...

Steve Cook, Duncan Watson and Peter Dawson have created some great materials about student replication of research in learning of undergraduate econometrics. The first to be published is this case study: #TeachEcon #Econometrics economicsnetwork.ac.uk/showcase/coo...
