Toward the end of the semester, all students will be giving a presentation on a
bootstrap related topic. These topics can include:
 | Replicating and/or critiquing the use of the bootstrap in a statistical
journal paper |
| Examining a section of the book that was not discussed in this course. |
| Examining a topic discussed in class, but in much more detail. |
| Performing a small research study involving the bootstrap. |
Specific details of the presentation will be made available
here during the
semester.
Below are a couple examples of student presentations from 2006. Note that
students in 2006 gave 25-30 minute presentations:
| Kendra Schmid - Section 7.4 in BMA

| David Johnson - "What Efron was missing" - This presentation examined some
parts of Section 3.6, but also went into Efron (JASA, 1994, 463-475) |
