Section Title:
Programming and Data Sci w R
Section Info:
Graduate Students should register for this section. In this course you will learn how to program in R and subsequently use R for effective data analysis and communication of results. The course will teach you the basics of R programming (such as data types and structures in R, writing functions in R, loops and iterations, etc.) and will expand to teach R packages to tidy, transform, visualize, and model your data. You will learn powerful visualization and transformation packages in R (ggplot2 and dplyr), and will also learn about interactive visualization packages in R. You will learn how to fit models to data with R packages and will move on to learn machine learning concepts/packages in R. This course will conclude by covering topics on tools for reproducible research. You will learn R packages such as R Markdown for integrating prose, code and results of data analysis. You will also learn version control with Git and GitHub, which will enable you to create and manage repositories of your code and share them for publication or collaborative purposes. This course will serve as a foundation course for any other advanced statistical analysis/modelling course in R that you may plan for later or in parallel. No prior programming experience is required for this course.

Section Info:
Elective course for Intradisciplinary Psychology Concentration. In this course you will learn how to program in R and subsequently use R for effective data analysis and communication of results. The course will teach you the basics of R programming (such as data types and structures in R, writing functions in R, loops and iterations, etc.) and will expand to teach R packages to clean up, transform, analyze and visualize the data set and to further communicate your results. You will be introduced to powerful visualization and transformation packages such as ggplot2 and dplyr in R. This course will also cover the concepts and tools for reproducible research with packages in R such as Markdown and knitr for integrating prose, code and results. You will be introduced to version control with Git and GitHub, which will enable you to create and manage repositories of your code (and data) and share them for publication or collaborative purposes. This course will serve as a foundation course for any other advanced statistical analysis/modelling course in R that you may plan for later or in parallel. There are no prerequisites for this course. No programming experience is required for this course. **Elective course for Intradisciplinary Psychology Concentration** This is for Undergraduates - 3 Credit Hours

Section Title:
RJ: Schoolyards and Prison Yar
Section Info:
Schoolyards and Prison Yards: Restorative Justice in Mainstream Systems Building on the foundation developed in the Restorative Justice: Principles and Methods course, this course examines the use of restorative justice in two different systemic contexts. The first part of this course explores restorative justice approaches in educational settings, including building and strengthening relationships among students and between students and teachers, as well as restorative responses to conflicts and violations of school norms and rules. In the second half of the course, we'll examine conventional responses to crime and look at early attempts at restorative justice within and in place of the criminal justice response. Although the focus will be on exploring theoretical, empirical, and experiential writings concerning restorative approaches, there will also be some opportunity to develop and practice applied "facilitation" skills. To the extent possible within the structure of the university system, the course itself will be guided by restorative principles, including power sharing. Students enrolling in this course will have either taken the Principles and Methods course or have other experience or familiarity with restorative justice. **Elective course for Clinical or Intradisciplinary Concentration**
