Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course continues and extends the concept covered in Experimental Methods I. Students will create their own experiment. In order to that, we briefly discuss a software tool (ztree) and basic statistical methods. Students will present their research ideas, develop a research plan and conduct their experiment. Then they will present the (preliminary) findings.
