Abstract

In a global world universities want to offer the best education to their students so that they can be competitive on the labour market both in the country where they studied and beyond its borders.
The Romanian education system – currently undergoing reform – attaches great importance to the use of traditional efficient teaching tools, along with new alternative ones.
The R data analysis system represents such an alternative method that the Ecological University of Bucharest uses in order to stimulate the student’s creativity in problem solving.
