"curriculum" is too vague. In the future we might also like to make a curriculum teaching Python in place of R.

Ideas:

  • r-intro-curriculum. (doesn’t acknowledge other skills though)
  • rrr-curriculum. rrr = reproducible research with R. hard to remember how many R’s to use though…
  • intro-curriculum-r. @zenalapp

What is the consensus for the name?

We currently don't have a consensus. I think of the 3 above my vote is intro-curriculum-r, but definitely open to other ideas too!

I wish there were a way to convey what makes our curriculum unique -- lessons are interdependent and integrate r/unix/git skills together, and focuses on reproducible research workflows

Maybe we should just go with @zenalapp's intro-curriculum-r and not overthink it.

If we think of something better, we can rename it again in the future.
