This winter semester I am starting a new course on empirical methods in social sciences. The whole course will be based on using the R ecosystem. Students will learn R using RStudio and have access to a dedicated course room at datacamp. In addition, I’m developing shiny
applications that will allow students to “play” with the data.
All slides are generated using xaringan
and the coursebook is being developed using bookdown. Even the final exam will be generated using R and the exams
package.
I’m looking forward to this new course that provides massive amounts of material provided by the R community.
Starting a new course on empirical methods this semester using #rlang and the #tidyverse at @RWTH with support from @DataCamp. We're also building online exercises using the #exams PKG and some online tools using #shiny. Will post updates and repositories.
