Deliverables
You will gradually build a developer portfolio: a folder with items showcasing your proficiency with markup languages and reproducible programming.
What to hand in
Portfolio
Fork this template portfolio. You’ll end up with a copy of the repository template on your GitHub account, with the full course exercise and deliverable structure. The full rationale about GitHub and branching will be explained in more detail in this course.
The parts of the portfolio are:
00_exercises: see Intermediate checks below01_research_compendium: reproducible markdown code and all items necessary for reproduction02_formatted_manuscript: a typeset manuscript following a markup language03_reusable_code: Shiny app or R package
In addition, you will create a personal repository page (see week 5).
The deadline for handing in the portfolio and the personal repository page will be announced by e-mail and/or in class.
Intermediate checks
Each week, you have to complete some exercises. These are listed on the website for the corresponding week. The results of these exercises must be uploaded to your portfolio. There are self-explanatory folders for this in the folder 00_exercises.
The deadline for handing in the exercises is one week after the end time of the corresponding class.
Grading
Intermediate checks on the portfolio: 10%
Portfolio: 90%
You must obtain a minimum of 5,5 on each of the two graded components. No compensation is allowed between the intermediate checks and the portfolio.
The portfolio and its intermediate checks test the Dublin descriptors Knowledge and understanding, Applying knowledge and understanding, and Communication.
Your grade on the portfolio will be based on our assessment of the combination of the research compendium, the formatted manuscript, and your personal repository page.
