Guidelines for Projects

1. Aim for ~ 10 slides.
2. Plan on 30~50 minutes talk but adjust depending on the topic.
3. Email the slides + estimated duration of the presentation at least 2 days before the actual presentation.
4. The presentation is about key concepts and application to data. Don't present too much details or math.
5. You're free to use your own data as an example. Or just use the data in the book.
6. Typical slides will reproduce the analysis in the book. Show data, explain hypotheses (questions), show analysis results, interpret. Also explain a bit on the methodologies.
7. Don't be stressed out. If you are spending more than 6 hours for preparation, you're working too much. If your group has that situation, let me know.
8. Seek help if you need one. Let me know by email or coming to office hours if you or your group experience difficulty.

Good luck!
