Project grading
There are three parts to this project. You must complete all three parts to be considered for the full 30%. For instance, if you do NOT submit a Final Report you will not receive the completion points from the rough draft and peer review process.
As mentioned above, this project will be marked based on the output in the pdf submission. You must submit both the Rmd and pdf files for this project to receive full marks in terms of reproducibility. Furthermore, this is an individual project. You are expected to work individually. The workload level is higher than that of an assignment, since this is a project. Thus, it is recommended that you start early.
This project will be graded based off the rubric available on the Assignment Quercus page. TAs will look over each section (on the submitted pdf) and select the appropriate grade for that section based off a coarse overview (one-time read over) of that section (of the pdf). Your project should be well understood to the average university level student after reading it once. I would suggest you make sure your (pdf) document looks clean, aesthetically pleasing, and has been proofread. Since this is a final project, the process to review your grade on this assessment is handled by the Department of Statistical Sciences. Thus, you will need to apply through a process (TBA at a later date) to see the graded rubric and potentially inquire about a regrading. There may be some comments/feedback provided (by the TAs) if the same issue seems to be arising in multiple sections, but you will likely receive no comments/feedback (due to the scaling of the class and marking).
