- Make sure that you have installed the [latest versions of R and RStudio](r_and_rstudio.html). 
- In RStudio, install the [educer package](https://educe-ubc.github.io/educer.html). This will install all of the tidyverse packages and other resources.
- Install all other packages we will use during the workshop by copying the following code into the Console, after the prompt `>`

    ```{r install-packages, eval = FALSE}
    # Data manipulation and visualization
    if (!require(tidyverse)) install.packages("tidyverse")
    
    # Data sets
    if (!require(faraway)) install.packages("faraway")
    if (!require(gapminder)) install.packages("gapminder")
    if (!require(datasets)) install.packages("datasets")
    if (!require(HSAUR3)) install.packages("HSAUR3")
    
    # Mixed-effects and generalized linear models
    if (!require(MASS)) install.packages("MASS")
    if (!require(lme4)) install.packages("lme4")
    
    # ANOVA for model objects
    if (!require(car)) install.packages("car")
    
    # Compare predicted values across groups
    if (!require(lsmeans)) install.packages("lsmeans")
    ```
