This new series is designed to help us all learn in groups.  The six-week, guided learning hour will provide a safe and comfortable environment for learning more about the R programming language, RStudio, and the Tidyverse.  The series goal is to enable researchers and students a low-stress hour to learn and hone data savvy skills.  Attendees will gain greater familiarity with a tool-suite designed to foster reproducibility and transparency as vital components of the researcher's workflow.

In the first meeting we will decide, as a group, which resource we use to guide us.  We will pick one of the following resources, either ...

• R for Data Science by Hadley Wickham & Garrett Grolemund (select chapters, workbook problems, and solutions)
• the RStudio interactive R Primers
• Advanced R by Hadley Wickham (select chapters and workbook problems)
  or
• the interactive dataquest.io learning series on R

RSVP for each individual instances of this event.  Event Dates are all on Mondays:  Sept. 16, Sept 23, Sept 30, Oct. 14, Oct. 21, Oct. 28.
