Review Chapter 1

R-COVID19  Chapter 2. Qin went through this chapter in about 30 mintues, then asked student to modify the code to look at different counties for about 20 minutes. 

In the remaining 20 minutes, Qin posed some more challenging questions: How to find weird counties and weird states. This question is not clear to students, because their picked weird counties names like "whitefield". So, the weirdness was interpreted by the students as in the literacy sense not as computer science or data science. 

A student reminded me that homework assignment on Canvas does automatically showed on the modules, So, I have manually put them there, even though they show up in Canvas Calendars.
