Tidy Tuesday Coding Club

Come join us for a Tidy Tuesday Coding Club. Grow your skills working with and visualizing data together in a low-stress situation. We aim for social coding to learn from each other and expand our skill sets. Our hope is to make this a fun, no-stress, and supportive monthly group where we can all work on data together, discuss challenges, share victories (and grievances), learn about cool new packages and functions, and keep the rust off of our R coding skills!

What is Tidy Tuesday? In the words of the R For Data Science Group: "Every week we post a raw dataset, a chart or article related to that dataset, and ask you to explore the data. While the dataset will be “tamed”, it will not always be tidy! As such you might need to apply various R for Data Science techniques to wrangle the data into a true tidy format. The goal of TidyTuesday is to apply your R skills, get feedback, explore other’s work, and connect with the greater #RStats community! As such we encourage everyone of all skills to participate!"

We’ll select two datasets to work on together in groups, and present our insights to each other at the end.

Rough Schedule:
6:30 - 6:45 Introductions and icebreakers, pick dataset to work on
6:45 - 7:45 Work on dataset in groups (using zoom breakout rooms)
7:45 - 8:00 Wrap up discussion

RSVP to get the zoom meeting information. We'll email it a couple days before the meetup.
