Learning R#

In the past I have used the notes on R created by Dr. Tiffany Timbers, an option co-director of the Vancouver MDS program. However, this year, I’m going to try a different way of introducing R, but I want to leave Dr. Timbers’ excellent notes in place.

UOregon’s R Bootcamp#

The notes can be found here. I will be recreating them on our course website soon.

Acknowledgments#

This content was created and adapted by Dr. Brendan Cullen. Below are Dr. Cullen’s acknowledgements:

Much of the content was adapted from previous iterations of this bootcamp led by Jessica Kosie and Cory Costello. I also adapted content from a variety of other sources, including R for Data Science, Modern Dive, Alison Hill’s R Markdown for Medicine workshop, Michael Frank’s R Markdown workshop, and Silvia Canelón’s Intro to the Tidyverse presentation for R-Ladies Chicago.

This website was based on a template demo course website created by Alison Hill as part of an RStudio Webinar along with Desirée De Leon. All artwork, unless otherwise noted, is by Allison Horst. Note boxes were created following a tutorial by Desirée De Leon. I also borrowed some custom CSS from Emi Tanaka.

Slides were created using {xaringan} by Yihui Xie and {xaringanExtra} by Garrick Aden-Buie. I also used {flipbookr} by Gina Reynolds for making ggplot flipbooks and {flair} by Kelly Bodwin for color-coding.

The code of conduct for this bootcamp was adapted from Cascadia R Conf.

Thanks also to Mine Çetinkaya-Rundel for her resources on using RStudio Cloud and Greg Wilson for organizing the collection of data science concept maps.
