Add questions we are going to answer with these plots at the beginning of the ggplot section.
And/or show them the plots they want to get first and then work to make that plot
Some of this in the lessons but maybe we want to emphasize
Maybe put the resulting graphs up the challenge?

Two parts to this lesson

  • thinking about how to make a plot from start to finish
  • how to use ggplot to produce a graph

Think that removing the NAs will help with time issues

I would be comfortable working on the ggplot lesson. I would just need the goals/objectives of the lesson to be solidified first. Also, there might be some value in a discussion about how intertwined the dplyr and ggplot lessons should or shouldn't be because my temptation would be to yank a lot of the dplyr stuff out of the ggplot lesson to make it less difficult.

@BajczA475 I personally still like them intertwined but can see your point about having them together might be difficult for students. I think I'd like to see how adding the final plots and goals clarified helps first and then if students still seem to be having trouble with dplyr + ggplot2 then we can separate these more if needed.

Maybe @ChristinaLK , @kbroman, @byandell have some thoughts they'd like to add?
