About Data Analytics and Analysis

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

The unit sits in the Data Science and Analytics strand of Databases and data science. Most of what you will find are mind maps, so it suits anyone who likes to see a topic laid out as a whole. Notes, flowcharts, flashcard decks and quizzes fill in the rest.

Where to start

Begin with the process. The mind maps on the stages of data analysis walk through identifying the need, defining scope and detail, and finding sources. They stress that questions should be measurable, clear and concise. The Data Analysis Checklist is a handy companion once you know the steps.

Next, look at what can go wrong. The mind map on issues in data analysis covers trust, data quality, bias, completeness, correctness, reproducibility and provenance.

Methods and tools

  • The notes called Data Analysis and Visualization cover graphical exploration: bar graphs and pie charts for categorical variables, and stem-and-leaf plots, histograms, boxplots and violin plots for numerical ones.
  • The practical mind map on data analysis looks at importing, cleaning and transforming data with Power Query in Excel and Power BI.
  • The roadmap of SPSS analysis for undergraduate research asks whether you have collected enough data before you go on.
  • The mind map on data analysis tools explains why a well-structured database keeps separate tables for different types of information.

Business and big data

There are several maps on business analytics, big data and credit scoring, plus case studies in data analytics. Web analytics appears in flashcard decks and in quizzes such as Google Analytics Quiz and Exit Rate vs Bounce Rate.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map, then test yourself. The quiz Module 3 - Data and Data Exploration asks about missing data, data quality issues, noise and outliers, so it pairs well with the maps on data quality. Note what you miss, go back to the map, then try again. The flashcard decks, such as Analytics Terminology and Glossary Data Analysis, help with vocabulary.

Teachers can pull maps and quizzes straight into a lesson or a revision pack. When you are ready, build a map or deck of your own on the part you found hardest.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the mind maps on the stages of data analysis. They set out the steps from identifying the need to choosing sources, which gives you a frame for everything else. Then try the quiz Module 3 - Data and Data Exploration to check what you remember about data quality and missing data.

What do the mind maps on this page cover?

They range from the process of analysis and issues such as bias, trust and data quality to practical work with Power Query and SPSS. Others cover business analytics, big data, supply chain analytics and credit scoring case studies. There are over 100 mind maps, so you can compare how different authors explain a topic.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so it is worth comparing a few on the same topic. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you create your own material.

Who are these resources aimed at?

Mostly university students and professional candidates, who can use them to learn the steps of analysis, practise terminology and check their understanding. Teachers can use the maps, quizzes and flashcard decks as ready-made material for lessons or revision sessions.

Is there anything on web analytics?

Yes. Two flashcard decks cover web analytics topics, and there are quizzes on Google Analytics and on exit rate against bounce rate. The mind map on Data Analytics also touches on monitoring user behaviour and marketing campaign performance.

What if I cannot find the topic I need?

Try the related terms, such as analytics, business analytics or big data, since authors name their resources differently. If something is still missing, you can make your own mind map, quiz or flashcards and use it for your own revision or with a class.
