R Shiny Apps for Statistics Education

**This project is for students in the Statistics & Data Science programme (M.Sc) only **

R Shiny apps are being used to enrich the teaching of statistics courses (Berkmann et al., 2025; Wang et al., 2021). These apps can provide students with an engaging and interactive experience. One popular app is Radiant – A Shiny app for statistics and machine learning ( https://shiny.posit.co/r/gallery/education/radiant/). For this project, students are asked to design apps that will support the teaching of STP80130 Multivariate Analysis. These apps could be game or information focused.
