Undergraduate Bayesian education is an area that has started getting attention lately. As many educational innovations and articles are published and increasingly more teaching and learning materials are shared, statistics educators might start incorporating Bayesian statistics in their undergraduate statistics curriculum. In this talk, we introduce two Bayesian statistics courses for undergraduates we have designed, developed, and taught for a number of years. In addition to describing the basics of the courses, we draw examples from the two courses to illustrate why and how we make our choices of teaching materials and Bayesian computing techniques. We will also share tips for starting your own Bayesian courses and/or Bayesian modules.
