Had a really good time at #RSS2024Conf last week. The keynotes were great and other sessions were invariably interesting and useful!

It's the last day of RSS Conference today! I'll be speaking in the "Schools, outreach and the digital world: how can we deliver statistical and data literacy for all?" session at 3.20pm in Oxford Hall!

Come along to hear from this year's William Guy lecturers alongside other speakers about some of the outreach work we've done with schools!

The work of the RSS Education Policy Advisory Group (EPAG) seeks to improve the quality of the teaching, learning and assessment of statistics and data. It aims to influence education policy to ensure the curriculum is relevant and engaging, to support teachers to teach statistics and data science, and to support people who are not in formal education to be statistically literate – to ensure they have the skills to interrogate and navigate the world around them.

I had a lot of fun running this "Introduction to machine learning with {tidymodels}" session today, and it was great to see so many people attending!

I'm also re-sharing this blog post that answered some questions after a previous {tidymodels} workshop in case it's useful. (Note that it's almost a year old so some answers might be a little outdated)
