This group assessment is focused on generating value from our data. It consists of 2 related steps. 1. Initial Data Preparation/Analysis and 2. Data Analysis: Designing a dashboard/data story using Tableau Desktop.

1. Initial Data Preparation and Initial Data Set Analysis

Each group will work with a data set that needs to be prepared for analysis. The group will be provided with the data set at the beginning of the course (In Week 1 it will be published in your Moodle class site).

The purpose of this activity is to acquire the necessary skills for data preparation. The tasks to be done are:

Data Set analysis: the group must prepare an analysis of the data set that describes what needs to be done to obtain a trusted data source.
Data Preparation: after the analysis, you must create a new ready-for-analysis data set from the original data source using Tableau Prep Builder. You must apply all the required steps to solve all the identified issues/needs that have been described during the analysis (for example, create a new column, delete one column, change the type of a column or add additional data to your assessment).

2. Data analysis: Designing a dashboard/data story using Tableau Desktop

In this second step your team will be designing a dashboard/data story using Tableau Desktop.

Each group must create a dashboard and/or a data story that will help a user to make decisions (related to the specific case).
