Joris is much too modest. His book is well worth buying.

Subject: Re: [R-sig-teaching] Data Science Materials
For the practical side, you have the book of Hadley Wickham : R for Data
Science. You can read this online here : http://r4ds.had.co.nz/
This however doesn't cover the theoretical aspects, so much depends on what
you want to teach. Also keep in mind that you might want to consider first
whether you want to use R just for data preparation and exploration, or
whether you want to teach programming in R. Both require a different
approach. The book of Hadley Wickham is especially suited for the former. I
can recommend the book Andrie and I wrote for the programming aspect. It's
called "R for Dummies". But you can find that information also in different
online sources for free.
Cheers
Joris
