Project Check in 3

Due next class (11:59am on Monday, April 11) will be your first draft of your project. You can refer back to the final project page for more details.

Project Check In 3 Canvas Link

What will be expected to be included in your first draft:

• articulated problem statement / research question (what are you trying to study?)
• load data and basic data manipulation (if necessary)
• initial modeling (e.g., prior, first attempt at model, DAG)

Also, starting next week, I will provide calendly links for a 30 minute group meeting to discuss your project. This meeting will be sometime between April 11 and April 25 (project check-in 4).
