Applied Causal Inference Tutorials

The goal of these tutorials is to give students hands on deliberate practice with the basics of causal inference.

Installation

You can install the released version of cinfeRence from GitHub with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("rstudio/learnr")
remotes::install_github("rstudio/gradethis")
remotes::install_github("asteves/cinfeRence")

There are two ways to start tutorials. In RStudio 1.3 or later, you will find tutorials listed in the "Tutorial" tab in the top-right pane (by default). Find a tutorial and click "Start Tutorial" to begin. Alternatively, you can run any tutorial from the R console by typing:

learnr::run_tutorial("TUTORIAL_OF_INTEREST", package = "cinfeRence")

For example:

learnr::run_tutorial("00-intro", package="cinfeRence")

will bring up the Introduction tutorial in your default web browser. You can see the full list of tutorials in the package from the R console by typing:

learnr::available_tutorials("cinfeRence")

Submission Reports

At the end of each tutorial, students can download submission reports that describe what questions and exercises they attempted. These pdfs can be uploaded to a learning management system like Gradescope.
