Very nice paper. I added a few small comments. Maybe it might be good to mention that this curriculum uses a "tidyverse" first approach rather than focusing on base R. For many of the reasons listed here: http://varianceexplained.org/r/teach-tidyverse/

I agree that there are too many R’s :) Also “R tidyverse” doesn’t work for me - Perhaps…

introductory R programming for managing, analyzing, plotting and reporting data using the packages from the tidyverse
