Método de ensino

  1. Practical exam (40%): consists of an exercise that will need to be solved during the last class. Students will have two hours to develop in their computers the analysis of a data set provided by the instructors, and answer a few analytical questions;
  2. Final Project (60%): The final project consists of the elaboration of a report that details the process of acquisition, transformation, and analysis of a dataset. The project is to be developed in groups of at least three and up to four elements. More details about the project will be shared during the first couple of weeks in the Moodle page;
