课程概述

In an age now driven by "big data", we need to cut through the noise and present key information in a way that can be quickly consumed and acted upon making data visualization an increasingly important skill. Visualizations need to not only present data in an easy to understand and attractive way, but they must also provide context for the data, tell a story, achieving that fine balance between form and function. Excel has many rivals in this space, but it is still an excellent choice, particularly if it's where your data resides. It offers a wealth of tools for creating visualizations other than charts and the chart options available are constantly increasing and improving, so the newer versions now include waterfall charts, sunburst diagrams and even map charts. But what sets Excel apart is its flexibility, it gives us total creative control over our designs so if needed we could produce our own animated custom chart to tell the right story for our data. Over five weeks we will explore Excel's rich selection of visualization tools using practical case studies as seen through the eyes of Rohan, an environmental analyst. Rohan is required to produce visualizations that will show trends, forecasts, breakdowns and comparisons for a large variety of environmental data sets. As well as utilising the usual chart types he wants to use conditional formats, sparklines, specialised charts and even create his own animated charts and infographics. In some cases, he will also need to prepare the data using pivot tables to drill down and answer very specific questions. We are going to help him achieve all this and present our finished visualizations in attractive reports and dashboards that use tools like slicers and macros for automation and interactivity. These are the topics we will cover: Week 1: Dynamic visualizations with conditional formatting, custom number formatting, sparklines and macros Week 2: Charting techniques for telling the right story Week 3: Creating specialised and custom charts Week 4: Summarising and filtering data with pivot tables and pivot charts Week 5: Creating interactive dashboards in Excel This is the second course in our Specialization on Data Analytics and Visualization. The first course: Excel Fundamentals for Data Analysis, covers data preparation and cleaning but also teaches some of the prerequisites for this course like tables and named ranges as well as text, lookup and logical functions. To get the most out of this course we would recommend you do the first course or have experience with these topics. In this course we focus on Data Visualization in Excel, join us for this exciting journey....

even if I'm a seasoned Excel power user, I learned a few tricks that I didn't know - it filled the few holes I had in my Excel knowledge

Hi, i loved this course, great being able to follow along all of the lectures and do a practice assignment. Also for the assessments they are very practical which really helps drive the information home too. Great content. My only negative is that occassionally there is an error in the question in the assignment (found others have noted this on the Discussions), and also I couldn't open a good few of the files in this course on Week 3 which meant I was a bit on the backfoot for the Practice Assignment and any related topics that came up on the assessments. Is there a way to separate the Creative Corner discussion answers too from the general queries etc. It would be great to search on the various weeks and get related answers which aren't related to the Creative Corner. Thanks!

Excellent course. Lots of information covered in detail. Good practice challenges. It would be helpful to have access to some example datasets to practice with as finding datasets online with nice categories was quite challenging. It would be helpful to have the pivot tables weekly module before the 2nd Creative Corner in order to know how to manipulate the online datasets quickly.

The course content was excellent however the rushed pace of the videos made it loose spontaneity and flow with constant stopping and rewinding non conducive to learning.
