When you use US mail, do not send anything to this address that requires a visit to the front desk: registered mail, certified mail, postage-due mail.

If you need assistance and possibly a quote for my services, please be sure to provide the following information:

Background information about the setting.

Purpose of the study.

Methodology on how data will be (or, have been) obtained, with an emphasis on: population and representation of the sample, survey instruments and other data collection protocols, possible ideas on statistical analyses and selected tests.

Expected results.

Reporting requirements.

Please try to put this information into a simple one page summary and send it to me, either as an e-mail message or as a faxed document. Please do not send a data file or any type of attachement during our first contacts. At the beginning, it is best to know about the data and your requirements, so that later on we can actually look at real data and engage in selected analyses.

Let me know how I can assist you in the areas of institutional research, statistics, and computer science education.
