Objectives
The purpose of this assignment is:
Individual Journal Assignment
- Store this journal entry as "username Week 10" (i.e., this is the text to place between the square brackets when you link to this page).
- Invoke your template on your journal entry page so that you:
- Link from your journal entry page to this Assignment page.
- Link from your journal entry to your user page.
- Add the "Journal Entry" category to the end of your wiki page.
- Because you have invoked your template on your user page, you should also have a:
- Link from your user page to this Assignment page.
- Link to your journal entry from your user page.
- Include both the Acknowledgments and References section as specified by the Week 1 assignment.
- For your assignment this week, the electronic laboratory notebook you will keep on your individual wiki page is crucial. An electronic laboratory notebook records all the manipulations you perform on the data and the answers to the questions throughout the protocol. Like a paper lab notebook found in a wet lab, it should contain enough information so that you or someone else could reproduce what you did using only the information from the notebook.
- We will be building upon the Week 8 microarray data analsyis, performing additional "high level" analyses. In the interests of reproducible research, it is appropriate to copy and paste the methods from this assignment into your individual journal entry.
- You must then modify the general instructions (which are generic to the whole class) to your own data analysis, recording the specific modifications and equations that you used on your dataset.
- Record the answers to the questions posed in the protocol at the place in which they appear in the method. You do not need to separate them out in a different results section.
- All files generated in the protocol must be uploaded to the wiki and linked to from your journal entry page.
- You will write a summary paragraph that gives the conclusions from this week's analysis.
Homework Partners
Homework partners for this week are listed below. The particular dataset that you and your partner will work on is also indicated below. You are expected to consult with your partner, sharing your domain expertise, in order to complete the assignment. However, each partner must submit his or her own work as the individual journal entry (direct copies of each other's work is not allowed). You must give the details of the interaction with your partner in the Acknowledgments section of your journal assignment.
- Store your journal entry in the shared Class Journal Week 10 page. If this page does not exist yet, go ahead and create it (congratulations on getting in first 👏🏼)
- Link to your journal entry from your user page.
- Link back from the journal entry to your user page.
- NOTE: You can easily fulfill the links part of these instructions by adding them to your template and using the template on your user page.
- Sign your portion of the journal with the standard wiki signature shortcut (
~~~~). - Add the "Journal Entry" and "Shared" categories to the end of the wiki page (if someone has not already done so).
Reflect
This week marks the end of Part 2 "Going Deeper" unit of the course. At this point in the semester, you have worked with 10 other people in the class as partners on journal assignments. Next week, you will be placed on teams of four that you will stay with throughout the rest of the semester. Ultimately the teams will be assigned by Drs. Dahlquist and Dionsio based on balancing areas of expertise amongst the team members. However, we will also be gathering your input into the formation of the teams. In class on Thursday, November 2, you will confidentially fill out a card giving us the names of three other people in the class whom you want to be on your team (you can also choose people that haven't been your journal partner yet) and one person whom you prefer not to be on your team.
As we get ready for the team projects, we are asking you to reflect upon working in teams either in this class or in previous classes.
- What kinds of characteristics do you want in your teammates, and why?
- What kinds of things make teamwork go smoothly?
- What kinds of things make teamwork not go so smoothly?
