Put all the data in a single downloadable directory
Have them download the data as a "raw data" folder. At some point make some modifications and have them create a "derived data" folder and write the modified file there.
Could we get ggplot and dplyr in day 1? If those are each half a day, that really only leaves a few hours for tidyr, statistics, knitr, and the capstone project. A single downloaded data directory will help; the spreadsheet and OpenRefine lessons can be streamlined... we don't need to belabor those points, just hit the essentials on spreadsheets and text clustering with OpenRefine. Likewise for the intro R lesson -- construct the lesson so teachers will move swiftly through it. Fold the projects lesson into another -- each transition creates a hurdle that takes time.
