  • 1.  Online teaching resources

    Dear all,

    I just noticed that there's an Amstat community specifically for online teaching resources, and it has extremely low traffic.  I'm posting this link again in case anyone else missed it as I did in our rush to simultaneously start COVID-19 research projects and online courses in the early spring:
    https://community.amstat.org/communities/community-home?communitykey=9c8a2ecb-45a6-469d-894e-5254e00d619f&tab=groupdetails

    I posted a couple of resources that I have used, and I'm hoping to learn from others, as I plan my summer course.

    Hi Everyone,

    I agree there are not many online teaching resources for the Covid-19 data.  I have created a few YouTube videos that show how to build an SEIRD model for the pandemic (one site only).  It doesn't show how to fit the model (yet).  However, if you go through the videos it does show how to build the model.  Below are the first two of 13 videos.  Any feedback on how to make them better would be great.  This was part of trying to put a computing course online in the middle of the semester.  It seemed like a relevant topics for students so I put these up there. 

    The link to the videos are here:

    This is the first in a series about compartmental models. The focus will be on Epidemiological models which are relevant in April 2020. This video does show ...

    Thanks for posting the link -- I wasn't aware this existed.  However, when I go to the community and click on "library", I get the message "no data found - either the content you're seeking doesn't exist or it requires proper identification before viewing".  I get this message when logged in with my member id.  I would be very interested in seeing these resources.
