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\nExpectations: 
 \n\n\n	If you're going to play along with the exercises\, you'll have an 
 easier time if you have two monitors. (Some people get by with one\, but 
 it's harder to watch me perform steps and do them at the same time if you 
 only have one 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 Visualization
