In the beginning of the course , I was quite nervous because this course is playing with data like data collection, data analysing and data calculation, which for me, is quite a difficult topic because of how much the data is and how meticulous I need to be so that the information is accurate. But then again, with the lecture given by Dr. Sharin, I realized that with proper steps and the right techniques, I can analyse and calculate the data accordingly without any problems. Although I faced some difficulty in certain topics, Dr. Sharin is a very attentive and understanding lectures who knows that some of us are struggling, and she would ask us to discuss together in class which helps me a lot.
Throughout this course, I have done 4 assignments and 2 projects , all of them together with my 3 other groupmates who are very diligent that makes our works smooth sail. The last project requires us to use the R studio to calculate the required value as well as plotting a graph automatically. We decided to analyse data of diabetes among women of at least 21 years old of Pima Indian heritage in the United States of America. We decided to use a a few test to further analyse the data which is hypothesis one sample test, correlation test, regression test and ANOVA test. The R studio itself is a very convenient tools to analyze data but as for beginner like me, there quite an amount of problems I faced in trying the software, however , with my friends help and also the guides in elearning that Dr. Sharin shared, I managed to do it.
This course has bring me experience which i believe could prove useful in the future for my future career. The knowledge and skills i got from utilizing R studio means a lot for me as I am able to accomplish what I have never thought I can. I hope that this knowledge is forever being engraved in my head so that i would not forget them. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Sharin who have given her everything to teach me and my classmates throughout this semester and making sure that we not just understand but also able to applicate the knowledge given.
