Coursebook for Data Science Toolbox
Course Material by Block
Content is arranged by blocks (single week of teaching content). You will not miss any material moving through this sequentially as the reference information is cited throughout.
We will spend the first half of each session with an introduction to the method, and the second half with you presenting and discussing portfolio work in small groups.
