Assignments

This chapter contains the details and binding information about the three assignments that comprise the portfolio upon which your course grade is based.

Below, you can find a brief idea of what each assignment will cover.

• For each assignment, you will use R to analyze some real-world data, and you will write up your results in a concise report (not a full research paper).
  • Guidelines for these analyses/reports are delineated in the following three sections.
  • You will submit your reports via Blackboard.
• You will complete Assignments 1 and 2 in your Assignment Groups.
• Ideally, your Assignment 1 Group and Assignment 2 Group will comprise the same people.
  • In the event of group-related issues during A1, you can join a different group for A2.
  • Even if you want to keep the same group members, you still need to enroll in an Assignment 2 Group.
• You will complete the third assignment individually.
• The first two assignments are graded as pass/fail.
  • You must pass both of these assignments to pass the course.
• The third assignment constitutes your course grade.
