Lecture Recordings
Lecture recordings are only available for IDS students via the University of Edinburgh virtual learning environment. To access the recordings, go to the Introduction to Data Science area on LEARN ULTRA and select Lecture Recordings under the Course Content section. This will open echovideo where you will find a list of all lecture recordings to watch once they become available.
Some of this material is required and some of it is optional. We expect you to watch the required videos and read the required reading. This required material is part of the course so it may be assessed in the assignments and it may not be covered in the lectures. The optional material is extra reading for those that are interested!

| Data Visualization: Chp 3 - Make a plot | Required | |
| A Layered Grammar of Graphics | Optional | |
| BBC: The Joy of Stats | Optional | |
| TedEd: How to spot a misleading graph | Optional |
The lab sheet can be accessed the day before the workshop, and the solutions the day after the workshop.
