Clicking the title of the lecture will open the slides in your browser. The icons navigate to relevant material for each lecture:

= solutions to breakout exercises; = Github directory for lecture; = source Rmarkdown document for lecture; = additional readings; and = video recording. If video is not available, the icon will show as .

The lectures are produced using xaringan slides. Presentation notes are available by pressing “p”. Slides can be printed to pdf by first scrolling through all slides (to ensure all content renders) and printing to pdf from your browser. Allegedly Google Chrome has the best support for this.
