Class 18

Advanced Analytics and Dashboards for Communication

Monday, November 24, 2025

Class Overview

Why is this important?

This is one of four classes reserved for teams to work on their Final Project prior to the in class presentations. This class also provides time for teams to assess where they are up to in their workflows and how they plan to finish the project.

What will we do?

This is a workshop class for the Final Project with a focus on completing advanced analytics for the final project and/or using dashboards for communication of analyses.

How this relates to other classes:

Teams should have made progress on their final project and be preparing to update the instructor on their progress and any challenges that they are facing.
