Lab 9 Reflection - Chpts 1-9

9.1 Overview

We have covered a lot of material in these first few chapters and now would be a good time to stop, recap, and reflect on what we have learnt. As such, this chapter is more about looking back at what you have learnt, testing your skills, resolving issues, and looking at other cool applications of R that have not been covered in this lab series.

9.2 PreClass Activity

As we are reflecting on what we have covered so far, your preclass activities this time are:

  1. Review the previous chapters and note any issues you have with the elements covered - both in terms of concepts and code.

  2. Post these issues on available discussion channels and we can look at them together at our next meeting.

9.3 InClass Activity

  1. Like the PreClass, we want to spend some time reflecting on what we have learnt and as such this InClass is about looking at ideas, concepts, and codes, that you have had issue with and seeing if we can resolve those issues. In class, we will spend some time looking at any issues you have had along the way.

  2. We will also look at some other interesting things you can do in R should you wish to expand your own knowledge and skills, such as:
