A short course for students to increase their proficiency in analyzing and interpreting data visualizations. By completing this short course students will be able to explain the importance of data literacy, identify data visualization issues in order to improve their own skills in data story-telling. The intended outcome of this course is to help students become more discerning and critical users of data, graphs, charts and infographics.

Are you ready to leave the sandbox and go for the real deal? Have you followed Data Analysis: Take It to the MAX() and Data Analysis: Visualization and Dashboard Design and are ready to carry out more robust data analysis?
In this project-based course you will engage in a real data analysis project that simulates the complexity and challenges of data analysts at work. Testing, data wrangling, Pivot Tables, sparklines? Now that you have mastered them you are ready to apply them all and carry out an independent data analysis.
For your project, you will pick one raw dataset out of several options, which you will turn into a dashboard. You will begin with a business question that is related to the dataset that you choose. The datasets will touch upon different business domains, such as revenue management, call-center management, investment, etc.

Data Viz Project started out as an internal tool box, where we simply stuck data visualizations up on our wall as visual inspiration. Of course, there are a lot of books, websites, libraries, and tools that include a lot of visualization types, but not as comprehensive and logical as we liked. So instead of continuing to stick these visualizations on our wall, we thought we might as well just put it online, so you and others can use it as a tool and inspiration.

Social data analysis enables you, as a researcher, to organize the facts you collect during your research. Your data may have come from a questionnaire survey, a set of interviews, or observations. They may be data that have been made available to you from some organization, national or international agency or other researchers. Whatever their source, social data can be daunting to put together in a way that makes sense to you and others.

When we come across a graph, a chart, or an infographic, how do we know if it is telling the truth? Often, numbers and data convey an authority that is hard to dispute, especially when they are arranged visually in a compelling way. Yet, data, in the ways it is gathered and shared, can be misrepresented and portray a slanted reality rather than a more accurate depiction.
This workshop introduces the concept of data literacy, or the ability to comprehend and interpret data, as a method of cultivating a critical mindset towards representations of information. Participants will learn how to discern misleading data visualizations and collaborate with others in developing strategies for analyzing data that is more accurate and useful. All consumers of information, especially undergraduate students, are encouraged to attend.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
* Understand what data is and how it is used for rhetorical, commercial, and political purposes
* Identify errors and discrepancies in how data is produced and represented
* Engage with data visualizations in multiple contexts with a healthy degree of skepticism
* Communicate their interpretations of data with their peers
