Master's Program 
​
  • Digital Experimentation Methods: A/B Testing
      @ MS on Business Analytics, HKU Business School
       
       Course Description​
 

​The newly emerging capability to rapidly deploy and iterate online controlled experiments to assist decision makings in organizations is one of the most significant innovations in today’s technology industry. As more and more social interactions, decisions, opinions, and transactions are mediated by online platforms, digital experiments are becoming increasingly crucial for firms to understand their user behaviors and make product decisions. This course will cover the most cutting-edge digital experimentation methods used in the daily operations at large technology firms, such as Tencent, Alibaba, Facebook, and LinkedIn. We will also share the key lessons and pitfalls encountered in practice. Topics include the statistics behind experiments, experimental design, methods of analyzing experiments, networked experiments, quasi-experiments, A/B testing platform and culture in organizations, and recent development in digital experimentation. Students will also learn how to conduct and analyze online experiments using programming languages, such as python, assignments, and a course project.

Please find the slides for my course on AB testing here. The primary reference for this course is the book titled "Trustworthy Online Controlled Experiments (A Practical Guide to A/B Testing)" by Ron Kohavi, Diane Tang, Ya Xu (Cambridge University Press, p. 220). I have also drawn from my own practical experience and research in the field of AB testing. When incorporating these slides into your own courses, please ensure full acknowledgment is made.

Ph.D. Seminar
​
  • Applied Network Theory & Networked Experiments
      @ Foster School of Business, UW, Seattle
       
        Course Description​
​​​​

This course will examine the foundations of and recent research in Applied Network Theory and Networked Experiments from economic, management, sociological, and statistical perspectives. Randomized experiments are important tools for testing theories, evaluating or finding strategies and policies in general, and are especially useful in social network settings. It is also increasingly possible to conduct randomized field experiments in many empirical contexts. This course is aimed at doctoral students conducting original research in applied network theory and applying randomized experiments in social-network settings, which is relevant to the students from diverse fields, such as management, economics, sociology, statistics, computer science/machine learning. The course will follow a research seminar format. We will examine and evaluate network research and networked experiments with deep critical thinking.
