Randall Pruim (Calvin College) & Nicholas Horton (Amherst College)Abstract
Because R is such a comprehensive and powerful statistical platform, it can be overwhelming to beginning students and faculty. Our experience has shown that a key to successfully integrating R into a course is the adoption of a Less Volume, More Creativity approach. We will outline what that approach entails, and demonstrate it by introducing key features of the mosaic package that empower students to create numerical and graphical summaries of data and perform statistical inference without overwhelming them with too much volume.
