Week 2 workshop warmup

# Week 2 workshop warmup ## How were you feeling about the idea of of learning code at the beginning of term terrified I felt SCREWED It seemed pretty fun and exciting - I always like learning something new Excited as ***heck*** Questioning why + unmotivated, due to something so novel (like learning a new language!) confused (why code for psych?) and intimidated Worried scared (did i accidently ipt to compsci?) The idea of learning code was intimidating, but also exciting at the same time. Scared intriguied interested but nervous nonchalant but a bit intimidated nervous, not sure what to expect Learning code sounted quite duanting at the beginning Scared deadass 100 It was a bit scary because I have never coded in my life. Scared because not familiar with coding Quite nervous but I knew how important R coding is within psychological research and definitely wanted to take part in this journey despite the challenges that may arise through the coursee coursee coursee coursee coursee coursee coursee coursee course ***Very nervous*** fine about it anxious Nervous and curious, and a *little bit* overwhelmed nervous a bit anxious Apprehensive, but still keen because it'll be really useful for honours and beyond <- yes me too, i agree too <3 Apprehensive Very stressed and nervous scared and overwhelmed not good lol stressed little bit excited and a little nervous too Nervous but excited Nervous but excited *Nervous but excited* Nervous but excited Nervous but excited Nervous but excited Nervous but excited Nervous but excited Nervous but excited Nervous but excited nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous nervousnervous hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhoverwhelmed ![](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/meme/images/a/a9/Uncanny_Phase_1%2C5.PNG/revision/latest?cb=20220311102546) what is a code overwhelmed and lowkey confused about how coding would be used in psychology <- lol same ## How are you feeling about the idea now? - Still getting used to coding, so still apprehensive BUT seeing its centrality to the verification report, I am more determined to learn (with an open mindset, and allocating more TIME) - Still a bit nervous as it's only the beginning but it's still interesting and keen to learn more trying to get used to the coding language more confident definitely! - It's actually pretty exciting and I like seeing things come together A bit better now because we are going through it slowly, but still scared that my brain is just not meant for this still the same because the learning curve is extremely steep and it gets a lot harder - Still nervous but a bit better - Feeling a bit better, Danielle is very good at delivering the content, and breaks down the code and explains them in a manner that is easy to understand - Motivated and like its essential to learn in the field still fine about it excited and its not as hard as expected Sometimes still confusing and hard to understand but it's easy to grasp if you take the time to work on it - Slowly understanding and getting comfortable with it since Danielle explains it well and thorough understand how to use it a bit more, it is a bit more simple than i may have initially thought Less apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtLess apprehension to the idea,it's not as intimidating as I first thoughtslightly better, but it still feels a bit rushed and overwhelemed because its a whole new language But better nervous It's going alright, i think each concept is being introduced well surprisingly okay, better than i was expecting - still need to wrap my head about some things, but overall finding it doable and pretty interesting to learn about the different commands Feeling slightly better because Dani breaks it down really well but still slightly overwhelming Right now I am feeling less intimidated, as Danielle is teaching us from scratch. scared deadass ***100*** but bold and italicised Feeling like it is not as **daunting** as I first thought Less overwhelmed Feel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFeel like it challenging but can get through itFFFFFFFF Pretty good actually! Dani is a really great teacher, and it's pretty fun to see the results of coding Still anxious but Dani is a great explainer and it has been tolerable. ![Mr Incredible with Danny Glasses](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/002/319/994/863) getting used to it. but r is pretty beginner friendly to use so its less stressful. ## My favourite thing about Dani's content so far is... The R Markdown stuff and producing a webpage has been really fun. Also graphing- that was very cool. Her sunglasses <- yes 8D <- i agree <-- **yes** <- **she looks like a meme in the best way possible!** She's such a meme but so knowledgable She is very quirky and teaches with passion She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them She shows what mistakes look like and how you can fix them Super clear instructions and casual vibe is relaxing visualising data with cool colours Very interesting Very engaging and entertaining how the content flows logically and interesting Not boring content is beginner friendly. she explained things from 0, flowed very naturally and made things seem easy. she explains it pretty well Her enthusiasm for R is pretty cute She loves what she does and it shows. It almost makes me excited for R, and I've NEVER been excited for R she has a very chill vibe and she explains things in an accessible way The way she panics when something loads for too long She's so capable but she's always joking how bad she is at code She's so funny and engaging to watch!! her energy and remarks her occasional jokes she is sooo ***chill***!! and **funny** **<3** her exercises are easy and easy to follow and she always explains them later so if you don't understand she will explain what she did The way she breaks down code into easy and understandable concepts I like the exercises that she assigns, so that we can get hands on experience - her step-by-step instructions are clear to follow, and render the videos as guides to return to Her teaching style is engaging and I like that she's relatable I like the step by step explanations makes it very easy to follow along and pick up on different techniques She goes through each step very clearly She acknowledges that learning code can be difficult She gives a lot of examples and you can follow her step by step and she gives you a chance to try by yourself The way she presents her lectures, I like how she gets so excited over small things She's so easy to follow and it's way more engaging than a normal lecture cause you get to actually do stuff rather than just take notes - she explains things really well and is very entertaining. When she gets excited about little things like graphs, i lowkey am too. shes so funny and engaging, i really like her!! How easy it is to undertstand and follow - she really breaks it down step by step which is so helpful Easy to follow and I love her energy :D The fact that her content is still so easy to follow and understand even on x2 speed ## One thing that would make learning R easier this term would be... Having weekly exercises that we can choose to complete e.g. for this week, we could use a dataset to try using ggplot functions to visualise the data practice and more resources <- agreed <- agreed x 2 <- agreed x3 x4 Some cheat sheets with very detailed and organised notes on how to do certain functions in R, because the slides are kind of all over the place and don't go into detai. Would be good to look back on this more time to get the hang of things Frequent revision of the modules and rewatching the videos. More coverage of the skills not related to the code itself (i.e. how the updates work, how to undo certain code, explaining the save files). consistently doing the work - maybe a *cheat sheet/dictionary/bible* for all html/yaml/etc prompts <- agreed <- agreed x2 more practise and using actual research datasets to see how we would use it in our own research Going through the exercises as a class <-- this more exercises less just talk through/walk through If the exercises were more individually-led (aka less answers given) in addition to the more step-by-step ones we already have (may be something for more down the track once we know a bit more) Practice questions Being consistent with the content and doing my own practice More practice More practice Asking friends and peers for help practice and working together probably using examples from actula papers Being on time with the coding modules, and allocating time to let the skills sit - to be frustrated about not understanding things, but alleviate that frustration by exploring and experimenting more on R I like it as it is going through exercises in tuts pls : ( <- agreed - more practice, explanatory notes on processes (step by step), pdf files instead of links, collaborative work in tutes. If I was able to ask my friends/other people for clarification :) Get rid of the inactive user emails! Please don't make me feel guilty for having to work long hours while studying, haha. extra practice in the tutes more practices with step-by-step solution, some cheat sheets might help too :) practice, exercises in tutes, etc. glossary/cheatsheet/summary of what we've learned so far
