Data wrangling and visualization with R

Data wrangling and visualization with R

This hands-on workshop is designed for those with basic R programming experience. It will focus on data wrangling and visualization using the tidyverse set of packages.

The workshop is open to anyone, but learners should be familiar with programming in R equivalent to the Intro to R and RStudio workshop. You will need access to a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer.  The curriculum is based on episodes 4-6 of the Data Carpentry Data Analysis and Visualization with R lesson.

This intermediate workshop is offered twice in Fall 2024 on 1 October, 5pm–8pm and 30 October, 9am–12pm. If you do not have prior experience working in R and RStudio, an introductory workshop to R and RStudio is scheduled for 24 September, 5pm–8pm and 23 October, 9am–12pm. You can take the workshops as a series or choose which one best fits your experience and needs. Please only register for one session of each workshop.

Learning Outcomes:
- Data wrangling practices, including creating summary statistics from a data frame.
- Become acquainted with the concept of tidy data.
- Reshape data between long and wide formats.
- Visualize data using ggplot2.
