	The Stats Design and Analysis Web Guide (DAWG), produced by the University of Tennessee, is under construction 2004-2008. SAS is a trademark of SAS Institute, Inc, Cary, NC and is used to refer to their software. No endorsement is implied.

Its purpose: First guides completed: CRD Single Factor RCBD Single Factor

to give an introduction to using SAS for statistical analysis
to guide students and researchers in identifying the proper
       experimental and treatment designs for their study
to provide SAS macros (easily used collections of program statements) that conduct
       the analyses covered by DAWG, customized for your experimental data
to guide users in stepwise fashion through each step of the SAS
       analysis and interpretation of output

DAWG assumes some understanding of statistics and prior exposure to experimental design.

Our goal is to develop individual guides (modules) for the experimental designs most used in agricultural and biological research, with a key to assist in selecting proper design:
Completely randomized design (CRD)
Randomized complete block design (RCBD)
Latin square design (LSD)
Multiple square latin square design (MS-LSD)
Crossover design
Switchback design
Incomplete block design
Regression

Users may "customize" each of the seven ANOVA experimental designs with one of seven treatment designs:
Single Factor, Nested, Factorial, Split-Plot, Strip-Plot, Split-Split, Repeated Measures.

Modules will also be built to accomodate some specialized features, such as sampling, replication and covariates.

A glossary is provided, as well as explanatory material each step of the way.
