Contents
Objectives
The purpose of this assignment is:
- to conduct the "analyze" step of the data life cycle for a DNA microarray dataset.
- to develop an intuition about what different p-value cut-offs mean.
- to keep a detailed electronic laboratory notebook to facilitate reproducible research.
- to revisit the "Deception at Duke" case with new insights because you have analyzed your own dataset.
Individual Journal Assignment
- Store this journal entry as "username Week 7" (i.e., this is the text to place between the square brackets when you link to this page).
- Create the following set of links. (HINT: These links should all be in your personal template that you created for the Week 1 Assignment; you should then simply invoke your template on each new journal entry.)
- Link to your journal entry from your user page.
- Link back from your journal entry to your user page.
- Link to this assignment from your journal entry.
- Don't forget to add the "Journal Entry" category to the end of your wiki page.
Homework Partners
You will work in groups of two for this week's assignment. Please sit next to your partner in class. You will be expected to consult with your partner, in order to complete the assignment. However, unless otherwise stated, each partner must submit his or her own work as the individual journal entry (direct copies of each other's work is not allowed). Homework partners for this week are:
Electronic Lab Notebook
- Store your journal entry in the shared Class Journal Week 7 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).
