During the hands-on (challenge question) part, there is reference to certain slide number for the syntax relevant to that particular question. However, the slide numbers on the slides hand-out were not very obvious. Suggest to add reference to "which coding line" or "which page which slide" to minimize searching time.

Good course for introduction to R. The statistics part towards the end of the course would probably not be directly useful for some people who are going to use R for data analysis.

I find myself quite overloaded near the end of the session, perhaps since I have no background in programming so there was "lag phase". Perhaps giving the softcopy of the materials the day before would help to prepare students mentally of how much mental work they need to exert on d-day itself.1.

1. I really appreciate that I could borrow the laptop from the training centre.

Well the lesson was well conducted however some of the information was assumed that it should be known. However some of my friends do not have programming background. I think only further improvement needed is to translate some / more of the course information to more layman terms for them (Posted on 7/9/2016)1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2.
