Data analytics is present in every moment of our lives. Data flows through smart phones, smart cars, smart fridges, streaming services, social media, loyalty programs, business operations, logistics, leisure and entertainment like a current shaping everything. At the heart of comprehensive data collection and analysis is a quest to understand ‘everything’, and this unit invites students into the multi-layered data-driven world where the real and the digital meet. TLC202 teaches students how to clean, manipulate, interpret, and transform data into creative visualisations using Microsoft Excel, to tell data-driven stories for invested stakeholders. Students examine the impact of data analytics in the context of public and private life; professional, political, and societal domains; and the reach of data across local, national, and global contexts. In hand with foundational data skills, this unit explores ethical issues relating to data surveillance, the implications of data mining on human behaviour, and the analytics machines central to the functioning of big tech platforms such as Google, Amazon, and Facebook. Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.
