What I mostly took away from this course is how to thoroughly analyze data and take advantage of the technologies provided to me like excel and tableau. This class made me put more data and what I am analyzing into perspective. Tableau was had to learn, but in more ways than one it helps with data visualization and having your data set understood.

I have never made one of these Excel mistakes, but I think the most important to avoid is Number 4, which is sort a spreadsheet but not include all the columns. I think this is the most important because when you select all they only select certain columns and some of the data won’t be included at all. The most important part of your work is the data.

It happens too…[Read more]

An example of Conventional Wisdom would be the idea that 90% of people don’t remember their dreams when they wake up. This can be tested by an observational study of how many people can remember their dreams word for word when they wake up. This is definitely something that is said, but not fully true because as soon as I wake up I have a story…[Read more]
