For my presentation, I have decided to focus on data visualization. For those interested in web design and SEO, I will very briefly talk about projects we can work on; however, for the sake of you having time to “play” in class, let’s get into data viz!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the topics we’ll cover:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What does it mean to clean data? How do you do it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open data sets to peruse:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Visualization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is data visualization? How does it align with humanities research?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demonstration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’m going to start by showing you how to use Tableau Public<\/a>, a free data visualization tool. We’ll use a well-known open data set, the Titanic passenger list. (Click here<\/a> and click on “sample” data. Scroll down to the “lifestyle” section.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After you learn a bit, you’ll be free to explore and play with your own data visualizations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
