Teaching in Production

Day 3 of the RStudio Instructor Training and Certification Program.

Welcome

These are the materials for an invited session for Day 3 of the RStudio Instructor Training and Certification Program, by Dr. Alison Presmanes Hill.

Prework

We assume that you have knit an R Markdown document before, but you don’t need to be an advanced R Markdown user to participate! You’ll get the most out of this session if you are familiar with:

• the basics of R Markdown¹,

• the RStudio Integrated Development Environment (IDE), and

• GitHub via the RStudio IDE.

You won’t have to use GitHub for the session, but many of tools we’ll use integrate nicely with version control via GitHub. To get started, complete these installation instructions, then test your connection between GitHub and RStudio following these steps.².

You’ll also need to install the following packages:

install.packages(c("xaringan", "distill", "palmerpenguins"))
