MIS771 – Descriptive Analytics and Visualisation – Trimester 2 2024
Assessment Task 3 – Data Visualisation – Individual
Tasks
This assessment has 2 parts. You will need to create an Oral Presentation via Video Recording. The recording must show you (the presenter) visibly in the video using Tableau’s Storyboard Feature.
To complete the assignment, you must use the dataset file named T32024A3.xlsx and apply the techniques covered in Module 3.
This data has been consolidated from VicRoads, then validated and enriched to provide a comprehensive and detailed view of road crashes and injuries across Victoria. The data provides users with information about Victorian fatal and injury road crash data basedon time, location, conditions, crash type, road user type, and other relevant attributes.
The assignment data file is a single flat file containing a subset of the attributes from multiple CSV files. It provides a single set of attributes for each road crash that has occurred within Victoria. Supporting documentation in the metadata will provide further details of the attributes.
Submission
You must submit the following:
Part 1: A video recording (5 minutes duration)
You will use Panopto to record the video and then upload into CloudDeakin. The details of how to record and upload videos in Panopto are here (https://www.deakin.edu.au/students/help/about-clouddeakin/video-and- audio/panopto) Make sure you are seen in the video (just the face is sufficient).
