Comments on the course

This is an overall good course, and Andrew Finley makes it easy & great to understand how to do statistics with R

Course Content

This course is the second part in a 2 part series. While in FOR 128, the first part, you learned how to use variables & data frames, as well as do joins, make graphs, and use the Tidyverse to solve problems. In this one, you focus more on statistics, with the concepts of mean, standard deviation, standard error, variance, and confidence intervals being central to understand. You'll also be understanding methods commonly used in Forestry like plot sampling, point sampling, random sampling, systematic sampling, stratified sampling, etc. There's a lab every week where you put what you learned from the lecture into motion

Comments on the professor

Andrew Finley is the GOAT

Advice

This class has lecture tickets. The way that lecture tickets work is that you do the reading outside of class, & then on an index card, you write down the answers to the questions that Andy asks of you every week for the readings.
