In late 2013 Dan gave a one-day workshop out at CSIRO that aimed to provide a brief introduction to R for an audience who knew statistics but not R. The workshop consisted of two distinct parts, an introduction to the basic mechanics of R, followed by a fairly rapid coverage of a lot of core statistical tools in R. (There's also a bonus "Part 3" that covers a few additional topics that he's fond of). Anyway, given that the University owns the IP associated with the workshop, and with the agreement of both CSIRO and the University, he's posted copies of all the slides, the exercises and the solution sets to the exercises.
Dan also had the presence of mind to record screencasts of my practice talk, so there's about 5 hours of him talking about statistics linked to below! Two warnings about the videos. Firstly, they were practice talks, and so my delivery isn't as smooth as he'd have liked Secondly, the quality of the audio leaves a lot to be desired (in hindsight, he should have invested in a USB mike). He hasn't made any attempt to edit either -- just posted them because they might be useful to people, but don't get too excited! There's a lot of flaws in how they're put together. On the other hand, they're free.
