Structure updates

Add a datacamp course for each/most of the 14 case studies Use datacamp education for instruction/assignments Then class time for questions/case studies

Grading changes 30% datacamp 30% final project 30% participation: tasks, and case studies 10% leadership (package presentation, leading a study group)

Package presentation? IF keeping, use a Rmd structure inside course repositories so they can be opened on the fly.

For grade: include letter to instructor with grade request.

Schedule Page (one row per week with): date, readings, datacamp, present last week’s case study, package presentation, tasks, casestudies.
