Abstract

“Doing economics” is an important theme of undergraduate economics programs. Capstone courses increasingly include instruction in “data literacy” and the STEM-related skills of quantitative and empirical methods. Because the professional discipline has moved in this direction and because of greater employer demand for these skills, data visualization is a key component of data literacy. Tableau is a free data visualization software widely used in the data analytics industry. In this article, the authors introduce an exercise that teaches the fundamental Tableau concepts and commands needed to create charts, assemble them in a dashboard, and tell a story of patterns observed in the data. The exercise assumes no prior experience in Tableau and is appropriate for undergraduate upper-level economics courses or an empirical methods course.

学习Tableau:数据可视化工具

摘要

“做经济学”是本科经济学课程的重要主题。顶点课程越来越多地包括“数据素养”的指导以及与STEM相关的定量和经验方法的技能。由于专业学科已朝着这个方向发展,并且由于雇主对这些技能的需求越来越大,因此数据可视化是数据素养的关键组成部分。Tableau是一款免费的数据可视化软件,广泛用于数据分析行业。在本文中,作者介绍了一个练习,该练习讲授了Tableau的基本概念和命令,这些概念和命令需要创建图表,将它们组装在仪表板中以及讲述数据中观察到的模式的故事。该练习假定您没有Tableau的以往经验,并且适合于本科以上的经济学课程或经验方法课程。
