Hello everyone and welcome to our podcast on Statistics for the Social Sciences! In this first episode, we will get an introduction to this course and in particular to the course Canvas site. Some of the most critical tools you will need to navigate this class are the Weekly Roadmap pages which are discussed early on. We will spend about 15-20 minutes on that as well as the other parts of the Canvas site such as the Syllabus, Assignments, Grades, and Announcements. This episode wraps with a few tips to (hopefully) make working through this course a big more manageable. I'm very happy to have you joining this course and look forward to 'speaking' with you for the next several weeks!
