5 day’s Short Term Training Program (STTP) On Data Science Using R Programming
DAY 1 - 26th
October 2020
A short-term training program on Data Science using R
Programming was organized by the Department of Computer Science from 26th-31st
October 2020 in collaboration with Xavier's Research Project Cell under aegis
of IQAC on virtual platform. Dr. Brijesh Awasthi, Adjunct Professor (Data
Analytics and Research) Poornima University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, and Adjunct
Professor (Data Analytics) Jaipuria Institute of Management, Jaipur was the
resource person. The STTP was joined by around 31 students and 5 teachers .The
STTP started with basic knowledge understanding of statistical data with the
help of interesting examples and the crucial role of statistical analysis in
the field of research and development. He further elaborated the need for
improvement on our data analytical skills using R Programming. The session was
very informative and interesting, students were enthusiastic and engrossed during
the sessions. He set a mark for the upcoming sessions with some of the
illustrations.
DAY 2 - 27th October 2020
The session imparted confidence in working with RStudio with
hands-on experience with advanced techniques to quantify the data and gain knowledge
with the working of the Data Frame and retrieval of the manipulated data. The
practical Question and answer session made us more compliant with R
programming. Mr. Brijesh familiarizes the statistical procedures with live
demonstrations and gave us a good analytical practice. The session came to an
end with all the doubts cleared.
DAY 3 - 28th
October 2020
The session
imparted confidence in working with RStudio with hands-on experience
with advanced technique to summarize historical data and gain knowledge with
the working of various interfaces and combining various data sets. The
practical question and answer sessions were
very effective and made us more congenial with R programming, and the students were becoming more engrossed during the session. His sessions were lively which made us at ease while
learning. He ensured active
participation by everybody by keeping checking on each progress.
DAY 4 - 29th
October 2020
On the fourth day of the session we were introduced to a
brand-new concept of two-tail testing with relatable examples for better
understanding. Further, we solved a variety of questions for full
interpretation of the concept and its area of application. He followed up with
each student ensuring each one and all are on the same page in learning the R
programming. We had a doubt solving session accompanied by detailed notes
dictation for future reference.
DAY 5 – 31st
October 2020
On the
final day of the training we finished with the remaining topics that were
covered under the training program with the very last set of online coding
sessions along with doubt solving round. We ended with a vote of thanks to Dr. Brijesh Awasthi and sharing our
experience. His method of teaching is very captivating with
in-depth knowledge of the subject matter, which is very much liked and
appreciated by all students.
The
session was very informative and interesting, students were enthusiastic and
engrossed during the sessions and looking forward to more enlightening sessions
