Resampling data to obviate the need for weighting [message #25839]

I am helping to teach an *intro to data analysis* class, and want students to be able to use DHS data for their work. But students are not yet familiar with weights.

Is it possible for me to resample the datasets (women's recode) such that the resampled data is nationally representative WITHOUT requiring weights?

And could you point me in the right direction on how I might do this (in R or STATA)?

Thank you so much!
