Teacher's notes
The operational solution to an engineering problem, regardless of the branch of engineering, requires the input and analysis of available data, as well as the output of the results in an intelligible form in a report or presentation.
This objective is more effectively achieved if analyst are familiar with softwares allowing data management and effective graphical and textual representation. Such softwares can also interact with each other for rapid and systematic results.
Another key aspect, regardless of the software used, is the storytelling of data that allows for the information of an audience and, potentially, to drive their decisions.
The course will be structured into lessons that, starting with the management of a problem's data, will guide the student towards a story through effective visualization that facilitates the interpretation and understanding of the problems addressed.
