Subject: Survey Methods - R first-timers will mainly be next week
​
Dear all,
A quick message before I enter a meeting and teaching marathon today.
I made a critical mistake in timing one of your R-related tasks. Therefore, I will cover the main content of “R for first-timers” next week on Mar. 29. The main reason is that, as we work from home, you need to install R before being able to use it. This part needs to be done on your own with your own computer.
Therefore, between now and next week, please install R. I am attaching a handout related to this task. Remember I have office hours on Tuesdays from 15:00-16:00 if you have any questions.
Have a nice day and see you later.
​
Best,
Aya

Subject: Survey Methods - (Homework instruction) Qualtrics upgrade
​
Dear all,
As promised, I am sending you the second important announcement before Session 2. That is the instruction for a homework assignment.
Watch the instruction video (7 minutes) [LINK] and set up your Qualtrics account. You will need a personalized code in the attached document. Don’t forget to email me at the end of the procedure. I expect the whole thing, including watching the video, to take less than 15 minutes. (The video and the attached document are also on the course webpage.)
Don't forget to read Bain et al.'s article, too. See you Monday.
Best wishes,
Aya
