This repository will house all the materials for the first course in the data science specialization using R, developed for the UO COE.
## Learning Objectives
-- Be able to use version control with R via Git through RStudio Projects
-- Be able to use R Markdown to create reproducible dynamic reports
-- Be able to read "flat" (i.e., rectangular) data into R and explore
-- Choose the tidyverse appropriate for introductory data science tasks (pipeline)
-- Understand and create different types of data visualizations
-- Be able to clean up a dataset using scripts in R
-- Be able to perform basic data wrangling and transformations in R
-- Understand the R package ecosystem (how to find them, install, load, and learn what they do)
