About Stephanie
PhD researcher in Statistics SUM:UP tutorTeaching
SUM:UP- I am a tutor at the university's SUM:UP Mathematics and Statistics drop-in. Especially happy to talk about R! MATH501 Modelling and Analytics for Data Science - I assist in computer labs for this module where students are introduced to commonly implemented regression based and machine learning models in data science. MATH513 Big Data and Social Network Visualization - I assist in computer labs where students are introduced to techniques for analysing big data in R. MATH525 Business Analytics - I assist in tutorials where students are introduced to business data analytical processes. BIOM5005 Project Design and Development - I taught the Statistics lectures in 2021/22 to MSc Biomedical Science students to introduce them to commonly used statistical methods used to analyse biomedical data. OutreachI ran workshops for Year 10 pupils from across Devon and Cornwall about the Capture-Recapture method for estimating population sizes. The workshop was part of the Year 10 taster days organised by Dr Jenny Sharp at the University of Plymouth. For a Year 12 workshop I designed and ran a session introducing students to statistical prediction modelling, including variable selection techniques and measures of evaluating models. Students were able to build their own prediction model using a Shiny app. This was part of a virtual Year 12 workshop organised by Dr James Edwards at the University of Plymouth.
