This project seeks to develop pedagogical tools that teach students scientific coding skills throughout the undergraduate curriculum. At Reed College, general chemistry students are introduced to R/RStudio (an open-source statistical programming language and interface) through an interactive workbook and template-driven laboratory analysis. These structured templates give students valuable exposure to resources for scientific data analysis, but more flexible skills are required when students enter upper-division courses or independent research, where they are faced with a wider variety of coding tasks and less instruction. In this project, we are working to develop a broad toolkit of R resources that students can access, customize, and build upon for data analysis in the upper-division chemistry curriculum.
