Methodical guidelines for laboratory work in the discipline "Data analysis tools"

Abstract

The main goal of the laboratory workshop "Data Analysis Tools" is to master modern methods of information analysis using application software, namely, to acquire skills in the full cycle of data research - accumulation, structuring, analysis and visualization of analysis results. Carrying out laboratory work provides an opportunity to learn data analysis methods using a spreadsheet editor (MS Office Excel, Google Sheets, etc.). During laboratory work, students, in addition to theoretical knowledge, should acquire practical skills of sorting, filtering, formatting, summarizing and visualizing data. Laboratory works include informational material, step-by-step examples of tasks and tasks for independent implementation. Students receive evaluations for a specific type of work from the teacher individually.
