Description
Posit Cloud is a web-based version of the RStudio software.
Documentation is available at docs.posit.co/cloud
Access
Posit Cloud has a free tier available for personal use. For class use, faculty are set up with a “Cloud Instructor” license and students are added to the class.
Faculty
Contact ITS to request an instructor account. Each course will be set up with a separate Posit Cloud space to add students, create assignments, and share files.
Help documentation for instructors is available at docs.posit.co/cloud/guide/teach
Invite your students to your class space via a special link using the instructions from Posit. It is possible to manually add students to a space, but must be done one-by-one, so the link is easier. Students are set up as “Contributors” - they can create and manage their own projects, but not see other students' projects.
Students
Your professor will share a class link for access to the paid version of Posit Cloud. Once your class is complete, you can continue to use the free version of Posit Cloud with your Swarthmore account.
Login Link
Login at login.posit.cloud using your Swarthmore email. You will be sent to Swarthmore’s login page for authentication.
