Step 1- Your task is to do initial analysis on your data in Tableau. Create some visuals, considering how you might tell a story with this data. Create at least four visualizations. Only one may be a table. Create a draft dashboard with these visuals.
Submit three things:
A pdf file of your draft dashboard
A one page write-up (use Word) explaining how you your dashboard tells a story
The link to your Tableau Public dashboard
Use the data from the wine quality.
Step 2- Consider adding some more advanced features.  You will be telling a story with your dashboard in Tableau, just as if you were presenting information to stakeholders or an audience.
Create a PowerPoint presentation. It should include:
Introduction: Introduce the data you are using and the purpose of your dashboard
Methodology: What methods did you use to analyze the data being presented?
Key findings: What do you want the audience to know? What are the major takeaways from your visuals?
Presentation: Screen recording a demonstration of your dashboard and your data story
Link to Dashboard: provide the Tableau Public link to your final dashboard
Use the data from the wine quality for both of these steps. FOllow the criteria rubric from step 2 only.

INTRODUCTION
As a business analyst, you must be able to evaluate data and share it effectively with other stakeholders. For this task, you will use the given scenario to support communication with stakeholders through data visualizations. These data visualizations will help you tell the story of the data you are representing. You will construct those visualizations using a data set and specific storytelling techniques.
SCENARIO
You are a real estate and property management business analyst in a big city. Your company’s leadership team supports building reasonably priced housing in areas that have well-performing schools with low school dropout rates (home price and dropout rate are the key factors). You wish to commission a consulting team of business and data analysts to build a full dashboard that will address the best locations for new construction projects within the five boroughs of the city based on the company’s mission and various performance metrics.
You decide to build a basic prototype model of the dashboard using the home price and dropout rate data for one borough. This prototype model will help you explain the project to your company’s leadership before you meet with the consultants who will build the full dashboard with many other predictive factors. You also want to be able to clearly report a data story about the project to the leadership team using your prototype.
To ensure you understand the data that will be included in the dashboard model, you will first need to connect your Excel data with Tableau and look at it visually.
Use the provided info to complete this task.
Provided model data for the borough: 
•  average three-bedroom home prices by year 
•  average dropout % by year
A.  Describe the two main factors—home price and dropout rate—in the scenario.
1.  Explain, using data from the “D466 Task 1 Data Set,” the current state of home prices.
a.  Use Tableau to create an appropriate data visualization that shows the current state of home prices.
b.  Identify one design technique you used in the visualization from part A1a, and explain how it addresses a common accessibility issue.
c.  Identify one design technique different than the one identified in part A1b, and explain how it contributes to effective representation of the information in the data set.
2.  Explain, using data from the “D466 Task 1 Data Set,” how a change in school dropout rates would affect home prices.
a.  Use Tableau to create an appropriate data visualization that shows how a change in school dropout rates would affect home prices.
b.  Identify one design technique you used in the visualization from part A2a, and explain how it addresses a common accessibility issue.
c.  Identify one different design technique than the one used in part A2b, and explain how it contributes to effective representation of the information in the data set.
B.  Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
C.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

Abstract:
In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, understanding customer journeys is paramount for businesses seeking to improve customer satisfaction and retention. This paper presents a novel approach to customer journey analytics through the application of process mining techniques, enhanced by GENAI agents and sequence-aware recommendation. By integrating process mining with customer journey mapping, we can unveil intricate patterns and behaviors that traditional methods may overlook. GENAI agents further enrich this analysis by leveraging advanced generative AI to provide deeper insights and predictive capabilities. Additionally, incorporating sequence-aware recommendation allows our model to consider the chronological order of customer interactions, capturing temporal dynamics and user behavior patterns to make more accurate and contextually relevant suggestions.
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of this combined model in capturing and analyzing real-time customer interactions across various touchpoints. We apply our approach to a case study within the retail industry, showcasing how businesses can leverage these insights to optimize their customer engagement strategies, identify bottlenecks, and enhance overall customer experience. The findings underscore the potential of GENAI agents, sequence-aware recommendation, and process mining as powerful tools in the realm of customer journey analytics, providing a data-driven foundation for strategic decision-making.

Organizations are dynamic and constantly evolving, and as they change, so do their data needs. A merger between two companies requires a data quality assessment to ensure that data sets are compatible so they can be merged. A preliminary data quality assessment will enable the data analyst to brainstorm prior to starting the assessment. Writing a journal of a set of steps can save time and effort prior to beginning the data quality assessment. Refer to the steps you learned in the Data Analytics LifeCycle to guide you and the DAMA DMBOK (Chapter 12) for industry specific terms and definitions. Remember to track cited sources.
Prompt
Use the guidelines below to identify what you will need to look for.
Note: A data set is not included in this assignment. You are only describing how to complete a data quality assessment.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Determine if the data set reveals a problem. How will you know if the data set represents an organizational challenge?
Determine if the data set is usable. How will you know if the data set is suitable for an assessment?
Assess the data set for consistency and completeness. What will you do to verify that you have all the accurate data needed to complete a data quality assessment?
Identify data that you will keep and data you will discard. How will you know if you need all of the data or only some of it?
Describe any obstacles that could interfere with providing an accurate data quality assessment. What will you look for to safeguard sensitive data?

For this final assignment, you can choose any science topic for which you have an interest. The topic can
be based on a subject mater that you studied in another class, past or present, or the topic can be
based on your personal or professional interest. Regardless of the topic you choose, your goal in this
paper is to explain the science to a general audience. This mean that you must explain all jargon. Your
grade will be based on how well you can explain science.
In general, it is always thought-provoking to choose a topic that concerns, or should concern, the public
interest. As you know, there are many mes when an important science topic is misunderstood by the
general public, a government, or a commercial enterprise, so that important decisions are made based
on misinformaon or disinformaon.
