If you’re not giving your data science students the chance to make a website and fill it with projects, then my @UofTStatSci students are taking their jobs ;)

@erinomarakunz I've used @openstatslab. I highly recommend their resources. They have brief articles categorized by analysis. sites.google.com/view/openstats…

If you are teaching #rstats and the tidyverse this fall consider using tidydatatutor.com in your course to teach and visualize data analysis pipelines!

Happy to share that our paper on the {palmerpenguins} (w/ @apreshill and @kbgorman_ecoevo) is out now in the R Journal! journal.r-project.org/articles/RJ-20… 💜🐧💜🐧

In another episode of “I use R for absolutely everything,” I wrote a post on creating conference posters using R Markdown. If you’re tired of copy-pasting and manually formatting your poster, try out posterdown for reproducible, pretty posters!✨#RStats bit.ly/pstrdwn

Just heard about this teaching conference for those in psych who teach methods and stats. The timing doesn't work out for me this year but might be of interest to some of you tweeps! psychterms.com

@JimGrange Have you tried the {SimDesign} package? It automatically saves intermediate results and will continue where it left off when it was interrupted.

Simulation running on my home computer for the past 6 days. Was probably about 10 hours from completion when we had a power cut. All work gone. Thanks, Universe! (Life Lesson: Save intermediate simulation results to a .csv as you go along. Don't be like Jim.)

@JkayFlake @rfarmer27 @tonyjroberson @bmwiernik @wesbonifay That is terrible news Jessica. I'm sorry to hear about your losses.

@rfarmer27 @tonyjroberson @bmwiernik @wesbonifay Wow had no idea! I'm slow on everything including tiny measurement lessons right now because I lost my home in a fire last Friday and being homeless, salvaging, and insurance relations are a full time job. I look forward to getting back to actual work, which is a nice feeling.

Hi folks. I’m teaching a dedicated grad-level psychometrics course this coming year. I want to expose students to the basics and diagnostic accuracy. What advice do you have? What readings, resources, or r code do you recommend? @JkayFlake @bmwiernik @wesbonifay

Such an outstanding piece written by @becksup — captures so many of the nuances pertaining to teaching track positions. So many great lines, will pull out a few… 1/n Can a Teaching Track Improve Undergraduate Education? chronicle.com/article/can-a-…

@andrewang91 @UofT I've a big fan of statsthinking21.org

I am teaching Intro to Stats @UofT psych PhD program this fall! Excited and a bit nervous to lead our students' 1st stats course in the program. #psychtwitter #statstwitter, what's your fav resource? Demos, materials, readings, syllabi, R code, tips, advice all welcome!👇

@LisaDeBruine @chrisdc77 \frac{1}{swooning} ?

Sarah Vine on Boris Johnson: "Men admired his disregard for authority, women swooned at his bad-boy appeal." Good lord. Pray tell, women of twitter, how much you swooned for Boris. And are you all still swooning? 🤪🤯

I might be a science nerd, but the list of authors alone is enough to get me excited to read this!

@grrrck Love this package! Thanks for making and sharing it with us.
