Welcome to the first week! This first module will focus on making sure everyone is on the same page regarding the syllabus, deliverables, group work and other administrative details. We will also make sure you are up and running with R, RStudio, and Slack.
Please read & work through the following prior to our first class.
If you have not already done so, be sure to read through the syllabus for this class so that you understand the structure of the class, the tentative schedule, grading policies, and other pertinent details.
Slack will replace e-mail and Blackboard for our course. You will receive an invitation to the AFIT DSL slack team. You may wish to install one of the apps. If you have any questions or concerns your first step should be to go to our class slack channel and post your issue. You and your classmates should be monitoring slack to help each other out. In addition, I will also be watching slack and will chime in when necessary but my hope is that this will be a social process where everyone contributes to knowledge advancement.
Most of you took the summer course OPER/LOGM 682, so you should all be spun up on the basics of R programming. However, if you feel a little rusty feel free to start working through the following resources to refresh yourself:
