Exploratory Data Analysis in R
Details
Join the Ekiti R-Users Group for a practical, hands-on online session on “Exploratory Data Analysis in R: From Raw Data to Insight.”
In this workshop, we will work with a synthetic dataset based on Nigerian contexts in education, health, and small business. You’ll see how to move from raw data to meaningful insights using modern R tools.
We will cover:
- Organising data in a tidy format
- Data wrangling with dplyr (filtering, selecting, transforming, summarising)
- Data visualisation with ggplot2 (scatterplots, bar charts, boxplots, faceting)
- Building a simple EDA story from tables and plots
This session is ideal for:
- Students and researchers who already know the basics of R
- Lecturers and analysts working with survey or administrative data
- Data enthusiasts who want to become more confident with real-world data exploration
Requirements
- A laptop with R and RStudio (or Posit Cloud)
- Basic familiarity with R objects and data frames
- Stable internet connection to follow the live coding
Participation is free, but registration via Meetup is required.
