Why is {.unnumbered} included at the end of some of the section headers on the HW?

  • I added the option for the sections to be numbered in the YAML (number-sections: true) so that the R exercises at the end of the file are numbered.
  • However, the book exercises already have their own numbering, and so I added {.unnumbered} to the section headers of the book exercises so that they are not numbered twice.

Recordings

  • Pre-recorded lessons are on Echo Cloud (aka echo 360 or echo video).
    • These can be accessed in Sakai by navigating to the BSTA 511/611 page and clicking on the Echo Cloud option in the left-side menu.
    • This will redirect you to an echo video page with a list of pre-recorded videos.
  • In-class recording links are on Sakai. Navigate to Course Materials -> Schedule with links to in-class recordings. Note that the password to the recordings is at the top of the page.
