![R Cafe Hex Sticker][1] **r cafe** is an initiative of [EROS][2], our working group for open research in the Department of Education at York. ## The basics **R Cafe** When and where? Thursdays 1:00-2:00pm, online. Contact cylcia.bolibaugh@york.ac.uk for the link. **What is it?** We are a peer support group in the Department of Education for all those interested in learning and using r. We hold weekly drop-ins to troubleshoot, learn and share resources. **Who is it for?** _Everyone_ is welcome, from complete beginner to code ninja, Stage 1 undergraduate to full prof :). **I want to get involved (but can’t make it to the meeting).** Join our Google Group to get updates, share resources and ask questions. Email Cylcia for the link. ## The format **Like a writing support group, but for r** - *Writing group* - drop in and code, ask for help to troubleshoot **...and with some extras** - *Show and tell* - code review style, come and present your code for 15 minutes + Q/A - *Pre-determined discussion topic* - we pick a topic (e.g. keeping your directories straight, updating R, collaborating with non R users :), and share our experiences. - **Special events (termly)** - e.g., how reproducible is your code? Buddy code swap/review, training sessions on special topic #### We need r users of *all levels* to make it work - there is no code shaming here!
