These modules introduce econometric techniques typically encountered by economic education researchers.  They give examples of the techniques using statistical programs such as STATA, SAS, and LIMDEP. The modules were developed by Dr. William E. Becker, Jr. of Indiana University through a cooperative effort between the Council for Economic Education and the American Economic Association Committee on Economic Education.
