In order to successfully approve the course of FAML you will need to conclude a small
application project. To this end you will need to select a dataset, raise several analysis
questions, apply the concepts introduced in the classes, elaborate and defend a presentation
with the results of your analysis.
You should send an email (to: mrocha@di.uminho.pt) with your proposal of dataset, by no
later than 28th of November. In this proposal, you should briefly describe the dataset, the
source and one or two paragraphs describing the type of analysis you are planning to perform.
The proposals will be evaluated by the lecturing team and, if some changes are needed,
feedback on the choice will be provided until the end of that week. Otherwise, you can
assume the proposal is accepted.
The presentations of the results will occur in a date in January to be defined later in
accordance with your calendars for evaluation. The presentation should take 15 minutes
followed by 10 minutes of questions and discussion. The final reports should be delivered a
few days after the presentation (in a date to be defined) so that they can incorporate the
feedback from the presentation.
