You attended Library Carpentry – Now what?

Go beyond the basics and learn important practical skills for working with data in R! This community of pRactice will feature live demonstrations and time to practice programming concepts. Participants are encouraged and will have time to work on their own data projects and get feedback in a supportive, collaborative learning environment. 

Over 6 live sessions, we will cover topics such as data transformation, visualization, and communication using tidyr, lubridate, ggplot2, and RMarkdown/Quarto packages. We will focus on accomplishing common tasks for working with real world data that participants can apply to their own data.

Participants will be required to attend at least 4 out of the 6 live sessions in order to earn MLA CE credit. For participants who have to miss a session, they will be required to complete mini-activities for each week.

Objectives:

  1. Practice new programming skills with real world data  

  2. Apply programming techniques to work with and visualize data 

  3. Develop the confidence and skills needed to independently solve programming problems

This pilot class is open to past participants of Library Carpentry workshops hosted by NNLM Region 1. By registering for this class, you are agreeing to the NNLM Code of Conduct.
