Lab 1 - Meet the toolkit

STA 210 - Summer 2022

What to expect in lab

  • Introduction to the lab assignment (~ 5 - 10 minutes)

  • Work on the lab assignment in teams

  • Lab instructions posted on the course website.

  • Start each lab by finding your assignment repo in the course GitHub organization

  • This is where you will find the Quarto document and data to get started

Tips

  • You do not have to finish the lab in class. One work strategy is to get through the coding component during lab when I can help you on the spot, and leave the narrative writing until later.

  • When working in teams, do not pressure each other to finish early; use the time wisely to really learn the material and produce a quality report.

Take the survey

  • If you have not yet taken the survey, please finish it right now :
