Try Epi Info 7 from the CDC. It's free and pretty well built.
I don't see most med students needing beyond that and it has the typical things they would need to see
in the field (Odds, Risk, Basic tests, Sensitivity, Specificity, etc...) It can handle maps and spacial density
as well. If you want them to do complex modeling it's probably the wrong tool, but for the basics it's great.
Beyond that, students can build instruments, record data, and analyze all in one package without much effort.
The dashboard is pretty easy to learn and use, plus you can easily filter and subset data for analysis without any code.
There's also good reporting/report building methods built in.

Subject: Computational tool for med students
I am working with med students. These are mostly pretty clever folks, but not many are computationally sophisticated. For others who work with med students, can you recommend an inexpensive tool for statistical support? Such a tool would not need to do much data management – that's a sphere of statistical effort I would not expect to see done by med students. The tool should be inexpensive. And it cannot be GraphPad Prism. I have problems with that tool.
