The final two modules are now available for ‘An Introduction to R for Policy Analysis’.

Module 5: Data Visualization and Storytelling

Module five is all about applying the principles of effective data visualization and storytelling in R. With a particular focus on using the ggplot2 package, this module introduces some easy-to-follow principles for creating effective plots and data stories in the context of applied policy analysis. Topics covered as part of the module include:

Module 6: Reproducible Workflows and Streamlining Analysis

Module six delves into more advanced R programming concepts, with the intention to familiarize learners with a set of simple tools and concepts that are available for creating more robust, repeatable, and efficient policy analysis workflows. As this module covers more advanced programming concepts, it’s core intention is to make newcomers to R aware of what’s possible so they can spot opportunities to apply the topics to their work, rather than making you an expert R programmer. Areas covered include:

Further Course Refinements and Housekeeping

I’ll also be spending more time to refine the overall structure and design of course in the coming weeks. I’ll therefore be reaching out to learners to offer my assistance and invite feedback on the course to identify areas of the course that would benefit from further refinement. You’re also welcome to reach out to me directly here if you have any ideas, or are facing any problems with the course.
