Course
materials:
- Course information, assessment procedures,
etc.
- Lecture
notes. These are constantly under revision, so it's probably best not
to download them more than a couple of lectures ahead. Using two-sided
printing and four pages per side will save on paper.

Technical
Writing:
- The importance of
clarity of exposition, and of grammatical correctness, in technical
writing cannot be over-emphasized. The best way to determine if you
understand what you are doing is to try to write it down in a form that
another reader can understand. Some comments along these lines are included
with the course information; for some
helpful resources see "Writing Aids" on my homepage.

American Statistician on comparative approaches to testing.

Statistical Sciences on the history of maximum likelihood.
