The What and Why of Statistics

Class Slack Account Access

Please sign up for Slack!

1. You will receive an invite for the class Slack account
2. Register if you already do not have an account. Note that you do not have to use your WVU account, but its not a bad idea.
3. Head to to the channel #introduce-yourself and well introduce yourself by tell everyone about yourself, what you hope to achieve out of this course, and something about you that really defines who you are. For example, here is something about me:
   
   I teach data visualization BUT I am also about 40% colorblind¹
   
   
4. (optional) Provide a picture if you are willing. I am a very visual person as are many other people so pictures help a great deal. However, you are not mandated to do so!
