SUMMARY:Intro to Tableau: Easy charts and maps
DESCRIPTION:[Online] Tableau Public (available for both Windows and Mac) is 
 incredibly useful free software that allows individuals to quickly and 
 easily explore their data with a wide variety of visual representations\, 
 as well as create interactive web-based visualization dashboards. This 
 workshop will focus on using Tableau Public to create data visualizations\, 
 starting with an overview of how the program thinks about data\, common 
 data manipulation and loading\, and the terminology used. Activities will 
 include a sample data visualization and mapping project\, which will give 
 people hands-on experience using Tableau’s basic chart types and 
 dashboard creation tools. We will also discuss publishing to the Tableau 
 Public web server and related services and tools\, like the full Tableau 
 Desktop application (free for full-time students). This event is open to 
 non-Duke participants.\n\nThis workshop is designed for beginners who might 
 be comfortable with data and spreadsheets\, but have no experience with 
 Tableau\, are curious about what it can do\, and want to get a quick 
 introduction so they can start playing on their own.\n\nNOTE: The following 
 week I have another workshop called Assignment Tableau 
 (https://duke.libcal.com/event/11646710) where we use the experience we've 
 gained from this Intro to Tableau to try to complete an assignment with new 
 data while I'll be there to answer questions. Consider signing up for that 
 workshop\, too!\n\nExpectations: \n\n\n	If you need help with something 
 during the session\, you'll be expected to share your screen.\n	You will be 
 expected to arrive with Tableau Public or Desktop already installed on the 
 machine you're Zooming from if you want to work along with me or do the 
 exercises during the workshop!\n	\n		Tableau is available through the 
 company itself\, not OIT\n		Tableau Public is free and available for Mac 
 and Windows. Please download\, install\, and use the desktop app and not 
 the "web authoring" online version.\n		Tableau Desktop licenses are free 
 for students (Google "Tableau for Students") or those doing teaching or 
 non-profit academic research (as defined by Tableau – Google "Tableau for 
 Teaching") Be sure to apply for your license at least a week before the 
 session\, since it often takes a few days for Tableau to verify your 
 student or teaching status and send you the license\n	\n	\n\n\nA zoom link 
 will be sent via email to registered participants to join the 
 workshop.\n\nThe content of the workshop may be recorded. If you are 
 uncomfortable with a recording being published\, please contact the 
 instructor at anytime prior to the conclusion of the workshop.\n\nData
