- A big part of the course is the project, which is based on real world data. Students are provided with data in a spreadsheet by the instructor. Data is mined from public domains. Students are to submit their input using MS Word and MS Excel.
- We are also using MS Teams to record additional video resources on using Excel for statistics.
