midfieldr: Tools and Methods for Working with MIDFIELD Data in 'R'

Provides tools and demonstrates methods for working with individual undergraduate student-level records (registrar's data) in 'R'. Tools include filters for program codes, data sufficiency, and timely completion. Methods include gathering blocs of records, computing quantitative metrics such as graduation rate, and creating charts to visualize comparisons. 'midfieldr' interacts with practice data provided in 'midfielddata', an R data package available at https://midfieldr.github.io/midfielddata/. 'midfieldr' also interacts with the full MIDFIELD database for users who have access. As of the transfer of MIDFIELD to the American Society for Engineering Education in 2023, the development, expansion, and study of MIDFIELD has been supported by the National Science Foundation grants 0337629, 0646441, 0729596, 0734062, 0835914, 0935157, 0935058, 0969474, 1025171, 1129383, 1232740, 1329283, 1361058, 1545667, 2142087, 2141903, and 2152441.
