      There were certain members of staff who took on an extra load to make this happen (staff training, curriculum development). But in terms of sacrificing other content, it wasn't necessary. It was just a matter of replacing outdated (and often poorly delivered or redundant) content

      We did introduce a fourth-year option of Advanced Statistics, but amazingly, it was our students who petitioned for this! This was one outcome that has surprised us: exposing students to quality methods teaching makes them want even more of it

      Not surprising at all. These things are something you learn to love. I've mentioned all these effects in this thread. Undergrads are constantly undervalued, but the kids are alright.

      I've heard others say that skeptics of teaching R just need to see Glasgow UG students at posters to be convinced that it is possible.

      I’m the student who led the petition for an advanced stats class that @dalejbarr mentioned. I have no experience in shaping academic curriculums (unlike the rest of the people in this thread) but for me the idea that psych undergrads can’t learn programming is not true

      A lot of us were frustrated that there wasn’t an option to do stats in a programming language in our final year so we wrote a letter to @Eavanmac and @dalejbarr (not even knowing that creating such a course would be possible). They were both very surprised but supportive

      I don’t have access to the evaluations but the general consensus was extremely positive. Most of us also did our thesis in R and even in cases were the supervisors weren’t confident with programming the students insisted on R!

      These are screenshots from the online campaign. Also couldn’t agree more with @o_guest that although psych students may not expect to do stats, learning how to program can only do good. A student summarised it perfectly in the letter we sent to @UofGPsychology (attached)pic.twitter.com/h0mGTJYflH

      Maybe I'll offer a free extra lecture to the UGs here next semester, to gauge the interest.

      UG promoted building a strong student community and I think this is what made all the difference. For example, in level 2, myself and another former student created a statistics peer-support group and organised weekly sessions. This is where the idea of the petition started
