Statistics with R

Dear students,

the re-exam will take place across three rooms (GHH / Foyer / HS 001), please see your seat assignment on TEAMS. The exam will start at 14:30 on Thursday. 

As you have probably heard, there is no official mask requirement anymore, but nevertheless, I think that it would be a lot safer with masks, given that the rooms will be quite full. Therefore, please consider wearing a medical or FFP2 mask during the exam.

Best regards,

Vera 

Hi all,

I will not present slides during the lecture slot tomorrow - instead, we will have time to address your questions on materials from the lectures. Please prepare such questions! Ideally, you could already paste them into this document here:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ToM9eF_e9EjBoweJRoZU23sP4d-vukBYgTD3n20Ye4w/edit?usp=sharing

So I can organize them a little bit beforehand.
Best regards,

Vera Demberg

Hi all,

I have now created a poll on room preferences for all those who would like to attend the FIRST exam:

https://forms.office.com/r/iKd7qbdAsG

Please enter your preferences, and we will try to see how we can assign you to rooms for the exam most optimally. You are free to choose between the options, i.e. if you satisfy 2G+, you can of course still choose as your preference to sit in a 3G room. But of course, if you do choose 2G+, you must be prepared to show your 2G+ evidence.

Best regards,

Vera Demberg

Dear students,

due to the current corona situation, the lecture will move to an online-only format from next week. So please do not come to the lecture hall next Tuesday morning! The zoom link for the online lecture will remain the same.

Hopefully, we can move back onto campus later in the semester, in case the situation improves.

Best regards,

Vera Demberg

Hi all,

as you noticed, there were at least two technical problems this week.

One was that there was a significant time lag between me changing slides and slides changing on TEAMS. This can happen when there are too many people in a TEAMS meeting of when the internet connection isn't sufficiently fast. We will try to fix this by moving to zoom next week. I have updated the TEAMS meeting such that it now contains the zoom link as the location, so you should be able to join the zoom meeting still via your TEAMS calendar.
Also, I post the link here, in case that is more convenient for you: https://zoom.us/j/3679328022?pwd=TkYzSk5nNDdudCtPNnExUHVXTlEzQT09

The other problem was that the camera of the room was not connected to the room computer (or at least, it did not react). This problem would affect both TEAMS and zoom, and I hope that it will get fixed until next week.

Finally, I will try to use the blackboard less and instead draw on the slides; this way, the remote people should be able to see equally well.

Best regards,

Vera Demberg

## UPDATE##

There are still a couple of groups with only two members, please already start working on the assignment, we will see what we can do about it.

## UPDATE##

We already merged some of the groups, respecting as much as possible the turorial group and/or same study subject. If you would like to be assigned to a group, please create one for yourself, this way it's easier to get an overview of who is still looking for one.

Dear students,

please make sure that you form your groups until tomorrow noon.

For groups with less than 3 students, we will merge them tomorrow afternoon to give you a chance to work together on sheet 0.

Please also note that tutorials are now fixed! We have a lot of students this year and sadly cannot accomodate all of your individual preferences.

You will find your online tutorial on teams. We will also create a channel for each tutorial there, where you can ask questions to your tutor (they are not yet in place). If you did not yet join the course on teams, please do that as soon as possible!

Thanks and good luck with your first assignment!

Dear students of the BSc LangSci (and sorry to the others for the spam),

those of you who are intending to take the 2SWS course Statistik mit R, please do not take this course, but instead do take Heiner Drenhaus' course "Statistik mit R (Grundlagen)", which was specifically designed to fit with your course programme. A 2SWS version of my course no longer exists! This course here is worth 4SWS / 6CP.

You can find the other course on moodle: https://lms.sulb.uni-saarland.de/moodle/enrol/index.php?id=3902

If  you notice that you are incorrectly signed up to this course, please remove yourself from this course!

Thank you and best regards,

Dear students!

Statistics with R will take place as a hybrid lecture this semester. This means that you can either attend the lecture in person in Günter Hotz Hörsaal, or you can watch it online via TEAMS. 

This week, there is no lecture yet. However, there is homework! So please take a look at the materials section (tasks 1-4) for more detailed instructions. 

Also, we are offering several help desk sessions in the first week of semester (see the calendar) to help you with any problems related to installation and sign-up.

Finally, please do not forget to select your favourite tutorial slots!

The first lecture will take place on Oct 26th.
