Develop your Analysis, Visualization, and Storytelling Skills
This course is for those looking to give and receive feedback on Tableau visualizations. You will submit your work and receive feedback using Udemy's assignment feature and by participating in frequent zoom calls.
Please note that you have some familiarity with Tableau before taking this course.
For 300 weeks, Eva Murray and Andy Kriebel organized a weekly global social data project called Makeover Monday on their website. Each week, they would share a visualization along with the underlying dataset. Participants would then download the dataset and create their own viz, and share on social media and the Makeover Monday tracker. Eva and Andy would review selected submissions, discussing their strengths and weaknesses.
Makeover Monday is currently on indefinite hiatus, but all of the resources from the 300 weeks of Makeover Monday are still available. So we can use this phenomenal resource to improve our skills as data analysis & visualization.
Makeover Monday also provide a fantastic checklist that we'll use to help identify weak points in your dashboards.
For this course, you use Tableau to perform exploratory analysis of the dataset. You'll turn insights into compelling visualizations. I will provide feedback on your work, and you'll have the opportunity to see how other students handle those same datasets. Through this, you'll build a portfolio of work on Tableau Public while building your skills.
This course will help you go from just understanding Tableau's functionality to knowing how to use that functionality to build visualizations that wow. Commenting on his experience with Makeover Monday on Tableau's blog, Michael Frayman explained, "I had been building visualizations for many years at work, but I was not satisfied with how they looked or the information they conveyed/stories they were telling. Participating in Makeover Monday helped me improve my design, analysis, and storytelling."
