Learn to teach, for goodness sake
summary
Argues that RStudio certified trainers teach modern evidence based teaching practices and shows concrete methods: use concept maps to limit scope, schedule incremental builds with deliberate gaps for consolidation, and insert quick check‑ins as formative assessment. Points to RStudio Education GitHub exemplars of learner personas as reusable artifacts. Uses a marathon analogy (first 100 yards, painful 16‑week middle, finish line) to justify pacing and measurable learning goals rather than handing learners expert workflows.
