Description
FINAL PROJECT GUIDELINE
Your final presentation is the
culmination of your work in this class and should display comprehensive
learning of the following:
- Data visualization principles and best practices
- Visual data exploration and analysis practices and best
principles
- Design principles and best practices
- Visual data storytelling
You will deliver three things:
- A final Pitch paper (Word document)
- A final Tableau workbook (.twbx) that contains your data, all related charts, and graphs with analysis/transformation
- A 10- 20-minutes video presentation of your Tableau Story that fully explores your topic and your data within. You need
to submit a video file (mp4, or m4v, or avi, etc.) Also, you can
upload your video to YouTube and submit a link instead.
Your presentation should
include:
- Detailed discussion on your topic/research questions.
- Your data, and any transformation (calculations, etc.) you
performed as well as join.
- Your analysis and your findings.
- Well formatted visualizations/dashboards that display your
findings.
- A well-crafted visual data narrative that supports your
story.
Part 1: Pitch Paper
Mini-Exploratory Data
Analysis:
The task in this project is to
use Tableau to form the basis of your pitch presentation by answering specific questions
related to COVID-19 Pandemic. After answering these questions, you should
create a final visualization designed to present the “pitch” to others and
invite further exploration and analysis of the data.
You should maintain a digital
notebook (in a Word document) that documents the questions you asked and
the steps you performed from start to finish. The goal of this project is to
understand better the process of using visualizations to perform exploratory
data analysis and to form a basis for your pitch presentation.
Step 1. Pick a domain from the COVID-19 data set that you are interested
in (this is your pitch topic)
