R Lesson & Data Problem Solving Clinic In-Person
Every week one of UNM's data librarians (Margo Gustina, Danielle Maurici-Pollock, or Jon Wheeler) will teach a single chapter from this software carpentry unit: https://swcarpentry.github.io/r-novice-gapminder/index.html. After this ~ 15-minute code along session, the remainder of the hour will be dedicated to working together to solve data management and manipulation problems participants bring to the group. Feel free to drop in for just the code-along tutorials, for the problem solving, or hang out online to listen into the conversation! (Online: https://unm.zoom.us/my/margogustina)
