My intention is that you learn to execute, interpret and write the results of multivariate analysis. There will also be frequent assignments and problems throughout the course, which I will review in class. Assignments will not be graded, but are an essential part of your learning. At first there will be a lot to learn about the mechanics of using the computer system itself, but it will get easier as you progress. This is just a rough sketch of the initial readings on matrix algebra.
Some students like to have an alternative source for reading about certain concepts.
You will need an individual account on YorkArts, which you can create yourself using York's Maya application . You can also do your work from off-campus on Phoenix, a Unix system.
