StatsLab

From your feedback to the tutors, we would like to clarify the following points:

Python exercises: Throughout the semester, there will be some more python exercises, but in contrast to the first week of the semester, these will not be the majority. There will also be a lot of pen-and-paper exercises, more similar to what you can expect in the exam. Nevertheless, you are expected to learn the basics of python to be able to solve these exercises. Do ask your tutor for more pointers, if you need further support on that.

Minitests: Minitests will in general cover the topics from the preceding lecture, so please make sure to have attended the lecture and/or studied the course material before your tutorial.

Class sheets: class sheets are to be solved in your assignment group during the tutorial. The first class sheet will be pen-and-paper and you are allowed to use the course material (lecture slides, course notes) in order to solve it. You will also be allowed to interact with the tutor. Again, please make sure to have attended the lecture and/or studied the course material before your tutorial.

There will be no tutorials following tomorrow's lecture due to the Easter holidays. There will be office hours offered on Wednesday. You are encouraged to attend them if you have any questions concerning lecture content, homework sheet 1 (will be published tomorrow) or your python setup.

In case you have not yet found an assignment group and would want to find one, there are two possibilities to proceed:

1) create an assignment group of your own on cms (preferred)

2) email Emilia

Please note that you can only take the course for credit, if you are submitting within an assignment group.

We will join all students we know are looking for groups by the end of this week, which gives you enough time to work on the first homework (due April 28) together and then also work on the first class sheet following next week's lecture.

In the material section, you can now see the planned minitests and class sheets by week (next to the topic of that week) for the next 3 weeks, with tentative dates after that. We will try to finalize at the earliest point possible.

For the homework sheets, which have a common deadline, we will make the submission visible early on for your convenience. Please note that homeworks are usually due within one week after publishing, except for the first one, where we grant you almost two weeks, because of Easter.

The tutorial assignment for StatsLab is done.

Please note that you will have to form assignment groups within your tutorial group, as you will work on assignments together during tutorials. If you want or need to change your tutorial, please get in touch with Emilia, providing the following information **as soon as possible, but no later than April 16**

Why? (Because of a schedule conflict (details! Which lecture/tutorial), because you want to team up with somebody in another assignment, because you want to switch to a German/English tutorial, other reason)
Which one? (Which tutorial time OR which specific other tutorial group do you want to switch to)

We will try to accommodate requests, but cannot guarantee that we will be able to.

If you do not take the course for credit and therefore do not plan to attend tutorials, we would be thankful, if you could drop us a line.

Please note that you can now form Assignment groups within your tutorial until April 15. If you have not found a group until then, please get in touch, and we will try to find a group for you.
