SUMMARY:A Beginner's Guide to Programming
DESCRIPTION:Curious about coding but don’t know where to start? \nThis workshop unpacks programming and coding from the ground up. It explains the terms and structures used in most modern programming languages and introduces some basic computer science concepts in an accessible\, easy to digest format with no technical background knowledge required. \nIf you’re interested in picking up some coding skills yourself or are just curious about how programming works\, this workshop gives you everything you need to get started. \nNote: this workshop doesn’t go into detail on a particular programming language (like Java\, Python\, or JavaScript)\, but it provides background knowledge that will be helpful for anyone interested in learning more about specific languages later on. \nTopics include: \n\nWhat exactly a computer does and how programming fits into the picture\nEssential programming concepts like variables\, functions\, data types\, loops\, and conditionals are and how they are used\nHow programs are structured and executed\nTools and apps that make programming easier\n\n Workshop InformationWorkshop ManualManualAudienceAnyone interested in getting familiar with the basics of programming and coding - no technical knowledge required.PrerequisitesNone

SUMMARY:Intro to Programming
DESCRIPTION:Curious about coding but don’t know where to start? \nThis workshop unpacks programming and coding from the ground up. It explains the terms and structures used in most modern programming languages and introduces some basic computer science concepts in an accessible\, easy to digest format with no technical background knowledge required. \nIf you’re interested in picking up some coding skills yourself or are just curious about how programming works\, this workshop gives you everything you need to get started. \nNote: this workshop doesn’t go into detail on a particular programming language (like Java\, Python\, or JavaScript)\, but it provides background knowledge that will be helpful for anyone interested in learning more about specific languages later on. \nTopics include: \n\nWhat exactly a computer does and how programming fits into the picture\nEssential programming concepts like variables\, functions\, data types\, loops\, and conditionals are and how they are used\nHow programs are structured and executed\nTools and apps that make programming easier\n\n Workshop InformationWorkshop ManualManualAudienceAnyone interested in getting familiar with the basics of programming and coding - no technical knowledge required.PrerequisitesNone

SUMMARY:R2
DESCRIPTION:When using R and RStudio you’ll find yourself using imported packages frequently. There are so many shortcuts and easy tricks that have been developed and put into packages for our use\, it’d be a waste not to utilize them. This workshop introduces some of the most common shortcuts and packages\, including the popular tidyverse\, which is essential for  “tidying” up data for easier processing. \nNote: If you are using your own device for this workshop\, you may want to install the tidyverse package ahead of time. Feel free to contact STS for help installing and configuring this package. \nTopics Covered Include: \n\nInstalling R Packages (tidyverse)\nManipulating data frames with Dplyr\nVisualizing data basis with ggplot\n\n Workshop InformationWorkshop ManualManualAudienceAnyone interested in more advanced features of R and R StudioPrerequisitesBasics of Data Management with R
