Quantitative analysis and coding knowledge (UC Berkeley, Psychology)
QuAck was started as a workshop in 2016 by Berkeley Psychology graduate students for graduate stuents who wanted to learn more about quantiative analysis and coding in R. Originally started as a semester long workshop for first year grads, QuACK has expanded to a student led grad class for introductory programming. We are hoping to continue to expand QuACK and provide more opportunities for learning throughout the community.
Goal 1: Teach foundational programming and data skills to members of the community.
Goal 2: Build an inclusive, supportive, and positive space for learning quantitative and coding skills.
Goal 3: Create open access learning materials
