Powering Institutional Research with R
Preface
This online reference guide has been developed to accompany the October 19, 2023 workshop of the Ohio Association for Institutional Research and Planning, held at Mount Vernon, Ohio.
The workshop will follow a timeline aligned to the sections of this reference guide:
- Chapter 1: Software setup and overview
- Chapter 2: Importing and cleaning data
- Chapter 3: Statistical analyses & data visualizations
- Chapter 4: Building parameterized reports
- Chapter 5: Collaborating on code
This reference guide is designed for institutional researchers, by institutional researchers, so it’s chock full of examples relevant to IR and often compares R functions to what you might use in Microsoft Excel.
