Workshop Webinars

R is a free, powerful, open-source programming language that offers expansive analytics capabilities through additional code libraries. This webinar will introduce one of these packages, tidyverse, that makes R code easier to write and read. By the end of this session, participants will be able to: identify the reasons why tidyverse might be useful in IR work, distinguish between base R and tidyverse syntax, install and load the tidyverse library, identify functions in the tidyverse that are useful in institutional research work, and recall syntax rules for writing tidyverse functions and code. Participants will also be able to practice coding throughout the session. This webinar is designed for those new to coding with the tidyverse or for those who want a refresher on some of the core tidyverse functions.

Participants in this session will be able to:

• distinguish between tidyverse and base R syntax;
• identify core tidyverse functions useful in institutional research work;
• recall syntax rules for writing tidyverse functions and codes.

For this session, participants are expected to have downloaded R and RStudio. Participants should be familiar with installing/loading packages in RStudio, understand R objects and the environment, and be able to read excel files into R with their preferred Excel reading package.
