Between Meeting 2 and 3

  • Recall that the final grade is primarily based on the final writen report. The presentations during the meeting 2 contribute also to the final grade.  Each groups is supposed to turn in a written report whose content is an example of an analysis. Each group has to  choose an analysis task, including data, that is suitable for analysis using the tools introduced in the course. Before meeting 3 each group is to prepare  15/20  minutes summaries of their suggested  projects to be presented during  meeting 3.   For the final grade a written report  containing  summary description of  math background learned in the course, the project, methods used, and results is to be turn in  by December 15, 2023.
