About the Assignments
Foremost please note that these pages populate information about course related tasks on the left hand side when they are assigned. Due dates are given within the description of each assignment.
Keeping Up
There are a lot of moving parts to this class. Students who gain the most out of the course generally follow these general notions:
- Engaging with the readings and materials;
- Following all R related materials and using the software to complete any data wrangling or analysis;
- Putting in a solideffort but also asking for help when needed;
- Keeping a respectful, open, and honest line of communication with me and your peers if possible.
Lessons
Most class sessions have interactive modules via Data Camp. Your task is simply to go through these.
I will grade these modules using a check system:
- ✔+: (11.5 points (115%) in gradebook) Modules are 100% completed. Every task was attempted and answered, and most answers are correct. These are not earned often.
- ✔: (10 points (100%) in gradebook) Modules are 70–99% complete and answers are more or less on point. This is the expected level of performance.
- ✔−: (5 points (50%) in gradebook) Modules are less than 70% complete and most answers are generally off-point. This indicates that you likely need to do something like putting in ore of an effort or asking for help. Hopefully people will not earn this often.
Otherwise 0 points (0%) in gradebook.
