Signature assignments, Statistics

It is interesting that major assignments in my PhD program were called signature assignments. I liked the signature assignments. I tried to make each one significant/noteworthy.

My first signature assignment was the paper on online reviews. I actually reused the knowledge in another signature assignment for the Statistics course that turned into a noteworthy paper too.

Statistics….

That was quite a course. I enjoyed it immensely although times were tough. I have a long history in statistics. My best grade at A Levels was in Statistics, specifically Pure Mathematics With Statistics. I also took lots of Statistics courses in the Economics program at UGy.

I remember that I rented the textbook for the course. Purchasing the book would have been better. Here is a post from Instagram showing the textbook I used for Statistics. I was returning the rental.

I also found a post showing the first page of the signature assignment for Statistics:

FEATURED

I am working to be published.

I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.

About THIS BLOG

I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.

I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update.
