Development Aid
- Synopsis
- Considers the global issue of child health and in particular how UNICEF compiles an annual report on the state of the world’s children. Explains the report, how health data is collected, and how governments and aid agencies use the data to plan long-term development. Two basic statistical techniques emerge: correlation, which is used to establish relationships between two sets of data, and regression, which is used to calculate the effect on one data set of changes in another.

- NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
