From next week I'll go to Beijing and Shanghai respectively to give a speech on R. Yesterday I just finished the beamer for presentation in English. Not very long, because I'm afraid of making any serious mistakes.
Here I would like to list the outline.
Topic:
From Economics to R --Using R in Economics and Econometrics
(At first it was "Using R in Economics, Statistics and Econometrics". However, I think it is no good to mention "statistics" since I'm not professional in that area. The same to "economic statistics". Therefore I only mention economics and econometrics instead eventually.)
Outline:
1 Economics and Statistics
- The Irreplaceable Support
- Software about econometrics
2 Main Econometric Methods
- Similar to statistics
- Realization in R
3 Now Work with R!
- Transfer the Data
- Cooperate with LATEX
- My own experience
Maybe the outline is a little too simple, but in fact I don't have too much to talk, since I'm a beginner of economics and R myself. I really appreciate the opportunity to give a speech on the 2nd Chinese R Conference, and I do hope that there will all right. Anyway, I have no better choice but do my best.
A more detailed post may appear after the lecture.
