Reproducible Assessment

Welcome!

This site focuses on the prospect of using reproducible research methods for the design, production, and promulgation of reports related to the assessment of student learning. I am considering using this as a launching point to write an actual book on the subject. My most recent blog post is embedded in this page. All posts are available in the blog list in the navigation panel. I would love to hear your thoughts on these topics too. A Disqus forum is a available on all blog posts (just click on their titles to get there) to encourage an ongoing dialog. If you find something that you like, please share it with others using the social media share buttons at the right. Thanks!!

Practice Post

This is a first try at using Gabriel to create a practice Jekyll post for my Reproducible Assessment blog.

I will have to see how this works out. Here is a formula to check out the ability to move code into posts as well. This seems to work ok to put symbols inline like alpha () and others.

That should be enough for now.

Adding a little mermaid code too in order to try out a simple chart:

sequenceDiagram participant Alice participant Bob Alice->>John: Hello John, how are you? loop Healthcheck John->>John: Fight against hypochondria end Note right of John: Rational thoughts
prevail... John-->>Alice: Great! John->>Bob: How about you? Bob-->>John: Jolly good!

This is a Gantt chart, but I’m still fighting with the styling…
