Syllabus

WEEK 1
Conceptos previos
En este módulo se presentarán las nociones básicas y se comenzará la construcción de la representación tabular y gráfica de la información estadística utilizando un ejemplo sencillo que implica la sistematización de datos numéricos y no numéricos dentro de un contexto.

WEEK 2
Obtención, descripción e interpretación de información estadística
En este módulo se inducirán los procedimientos para construir las medidas estadísticas a través de un ejemplo dentro de un contexto.

WEEK 3
Obtención e interpretación de información estadística con datos bivariados
En el siguiente módulo se trabajará inicialmente con dos variables numéricas para afianzar los conceptos y aplicaciones correspondientes a los temas de regresión lineal y correlación. Posteriormente se explorarán las representaciones e interpretaciones propias del trabajo con variables cualitativas.

WEEK 4
Azar: modelación y toma de decisiones
En el siguiente módulo se explorarán los primeros conceptos de probabilidad a partir de un ejemplo sencillo y se utilizarán las tablas de doble entrada para construir las primeras definiciones e inducir el comportamiento de eventos simples y compuestos de un espacio muestral.

Global Statistics - Composite Indices for International Comparisons (Coursera)

In this course on global statistics, offered by the University of Geneva jointly with the ETH Zürich KOF, you will learn the general approach of constructing composite indices and some of resulting problems. We will discuss the technical properties, the internal structure (like aggregation, weighting, stability of time series), the primary data used and the variable selection methods. These concepts will be illustrated using a sample of the most popular composite indices. We will try to address not only statistical questions but also focus on the distinction between policy-, media- and paradigm-driven indicators.

The Finite Element Method for Problems in Physics (Coursera)

This course is an introduction to the finite element method as applicable to a range of problems in physics and engineering sciences. The treatment is mathematical, but only for the purpose of clarifying the formulation. The emphasis is on coding up the formulations in a modern, open-source environment that can be expanded to other applications, subsequently.

Probability and Statistics: To p or not to p? (Coursera)

We live in an uncertain and complex world, yet we continually have to make decisions in the present with uncertain future outcomes. Indeed, we should be on the look-out for "black swans" - low-probability high-impact events. To study, or not to study? To invest, or not to invest? To marry, or not to marry?

Improving Your Statistical Questions (Coursera)

This course aims to help you to ask better statistical questions when performing empirical research. We will discuss how to design informative studies, both when your predictions are correct, as when your predictions are wrong. We will question norms, and reflect on how we can improve research practices to ask more interesting questions.
