Calculations Tutorial – Fundraising – TfT (1).twbx
Complete all 4 sheets (charts) using the fundraising data in Tableau (note this time I supply the twbx file so you don’t need to do the Excel connections to read in excel data – data are already in). When you are done with the charts, please: a) submit a Word file with all the exported images on Canvas (for chart3 please just take a screenshot) ; b) answer the questions with texts and numbers using Google Form link provided below.
Learning objectives: Be able to use some simple Tableau calculations, and be able to use the information in the charts in a flexible way to deliver marketing insights.
Please pledge your honor code in your Word file by pasting this statement at the beginning of the file: “I confirm that I have generated all these charts in Tableau myself, and have done my own work for the calculations.”
