Instructor Notes
General notes
The examples gradually build up to a full analysis
of the Palmer
Penguins dataset. However, there are a few places where completely
different code is demonstrated to explain certain concepts. Since a
given targets
project can only have one
_targets.R
file, this means the participants may have to
delete their existing _targets.R
file and write a new one
to follow along with the examples. This may cause frustration if they
can’t keep a record of what they have done so far. One solution would be
to save the old _targets.R
file as
_targets_old.R
or similar, then rename it when it should be
run again.

Instructor Note
- To reinforce the concept of
targets
running in a separate R session, you may want to pretend trying to runpenguins_data
, then feigning surprise when it doesn’t work and using it as a teaching moment (errors are pedagogy!).
