data exploration and manipulation storytelling and data visualization data analysisWould you like to translate data into actionable insight? In this project, students will use a data set and questions of interest provided by your organization to perform data exploration, visualization, statistical modelling, and inference to learn from your data. They will provide you with a summary of their findings and insights to answer your questions.
Learners
Each team will prepare a poster presentation summarizing the results of their data explorations and analyses and will deliver a 5 minute presentation to course instructors at a poster fair. Top submissions will be filmed for your review.
The entire class will work in groups of 4 to complete this project, but only the top 2-5 poster presentations will be shared with you for assessment.
