Feedback for Milestone 1

[KateJohnson]

Project Setup:

• The project needs a license
• Your contributing document is good for the general public, but how will you work on this project together? Will you all work on the master branch, or a local version?
• How will you track which component of the project each member is working on?

Milestone 1:

• Overall I like your question very much. However, I think the more obvious question is whether beliefs predict actions (recycling), rather than whether actions predict beliefs. What you have is not wrong, but you should include some discussion of the direction of the relationship in your final report.
• The null and alternative hypothesis (as well as the analysis) should focus on the main predictor of interest (recycling) rather than the testing the effects of confounders.
• Suggest anova rather than paired t-test so you can still adjust for the confounders. I liked that you talked about the assumptions.
• Very good discussion of biases.

https://github.com/UBC-MDS/Sustainability_Survey/pull/20 covers the second point of Project Setup

Your contributing document is good for the general public, but how will you work on this project together? Will you all work on the master branch, or a local version?

Thanks for your feedback, @KateJohnson. We updated the project repo in order to address the first two items that you pointed out on Project Setup, and regarding the third one, since milestone 1 we are creating issues to establish the workflow (https://github.com/UBC-MDS/Sustainability_Survey/issues/6, https://github.com/UBC-MDS/Sustainability_Survey/issues/12) and each team member's responsibilities as suggested by @xiaoweideng. Can you please confirm if we need to do anything else to address this point?

Hi @mchiriboga. That sounds good, no need to do anything else. I meant that tracking team member tasks could also be detailed in the contributing document.
