Probably no-one except me uses my R tutorials in their teaching, but if you do, I'm re-writing them over the next 6-9 months. My goal is to streamline them based on 5 years of using them in class, but if you have (polite) requests/suggestsions let me have them. www.discovr.rocks/discovr/

You there! Would you like to learn how to make very pretty graphs in #rstats? I'm delivering a short introduction to data viz in R on 15th April. Online, free (I think), and no prior knowledge or experience of R required.

I've been working on a new book for our PsyTeachR suite to support my stats and research course where we can teach MSc students more of a modelling approach. So far, it covers simple to generalised linear regression, and an introduction to Bayesian statistics: bartlettje.github.io/statsresdesi...

A little delayed but Wil Toivo and I finally have a complete rewrite of our Fundamentals of Quantitative Analysis book 📖 psyteachr.github.io/quant-fun-v3/

This is our data skills book for MSc conversion students, so they must rapidly get up to speed and complete chapters 1-11 in semester 1.

❤️ People still need training in computational skills
🧡 Every branch of research is increasingly reliant on all things digital...
💛...but most new grads are no better than 25 years ago
💚 Mostly graduate level and grassroots
💙 Mostly self-taught and short training
