For the past 4 years, we have been involved in a project that aims to enhance the teaching and learning of experimental analysis and statistics, of environmental and biological sciences students, through computational programming activities (using R code). In this project, through an iterative design, we have developed sequences of R-code-based activities that have been implemented in three institutions in Mexico and Portugal, in eight postgraduate and five undergraduate courses; these are hands-on sets of tasks in R script that include computer programming work and are meant to be carried out collaboratively (a sample of an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) activity is given). Here, we focus on results that indicate that students tend to enjoy the courses, lose their fear of statistics, as well as develop some competencies for applying statistical methods and using computational tools, such as R, on their own data that may deepen their understanding of the biological phenomena they have to analyse.

对统计的热爱：通过计算机编程活动欣赏和学习应用实验分析和统计

在过去的四年中，我们参与了一个旨在通过计算编程活动（使用R代码）增强环境和生物科学专业学生实验分析和统计学的教学的项目。在该项目中，通过迭代设计，我们开发了一系列基于R代码的活动，这些活动已在墨西哥和葡萄牙的三个机构，八个研究生课程和五个本科课程中实施；这些是R脚本中的动手任务集，其中包括计算机编程工作，并且应以协作方式进行（给出了方差分析（ANOVA）活动的样本）。在这里，我们着重于表明学生倾向于学习课程，对统计数据失去恐惧，
