Lab 11 guide

Goal: Students should get practice with:

• Grouping

• Mapping

• Resampling

• Multi-line charts

Do the following in the lab notebook all together, with students driving.

1. ~35 minutes: Buses

   • You’ll need to introduce pd.to_datetime() and resample(), since we didn’t get to them yet.

     • You can keep this fairly brief, as we’ll revisit in Lecture 22.

     • See the slides from Python for Public Policy for ideas on how to talk about them.

   • If you have time, make charts. Otherwise, showing in a table is fine.

2. 311 and COVID

   1. ~30 minutes: Work through Step 5 together.

      • You’ll need to introduce resampling with other grouping for Step 3 since we didn’t get to it yet.

   2. ~25 minutes: Independent work time for the rest.

While the solutions for the first two sections are available,

• Discourage students from looking at them before completing

• The solutions the group comes up with don’t need to look like the provided ones
