Data Story App Development with R
X-Cluster
We are now at the era of big data. Data and algorithms dominate the day. Competitive advantage, for more and more enterprises, is obtained via data analytics and idea sharing in the current fast-paced, data-intensive, and open-source business environment. The capability of understanding data, digging out valuable insights from data, and thus making right managerial decisions accordingly has gradually become an essential skill that business graduates must master in order to excel in their career.
This workshop prepares students with fundamental knowledge of using R, a powerful complete analytical environment, to organize, visualize, and analyze data. It is, however, not a programming course. It will focus on case studies that will train students how to summarise and present findings in a structured, meaningful, and convincing way. At the end of the course, students should be ready to develop an app to tell data story for a given business case.
