Students just successfully used R Studio Cloud (https://rstudio.cloud/) to present their major assignments in the BIOL4030 Research Design and Data Analysis in R course. A wide variety of topics and R packages were covered, including (but not limited to!) mark-recapture, species co-occurrence, video tracking of crayfish, and spectrophotometry. Everyone did a great job presenting their tutorials to the class. Although R Studio Cloud is still in alpha, it was the perfect platform for the culminating assignment in this class.
datacamp for the classroomI am interested in leveraging online learning tools like DataCamp to facilitate and enhance student learning in the field of Data Science. DataCamp provides expert guidance and hands-on-the-keyboard exercises that help students learn faster and more effectively. That is why institutions like Harvard and Princeton Universities have adopted it into their learning programs. As a new initiative, I am bringing DataCamp to Trent University by using "DataCamp For The Classroom" in my Research Design & Data Analysis class for fall 2018.  data science learning communityI hope that this "blog" will provide a Data Science learning community for students in my BIOL 4030 Research Design and Data Analysis course, as well as anyone else who might be interested in topics related to Computing for Biologists.
