The purpose of this forum is to have a healthy exchange of ideas that will be useful to all attendees. It is sponsored by the Center for Information Technologies and eBusiness (CITe) of the University of Akron’s College of Business Administration.
ITEE Meeting
Augmented Analytics and Data Literacy
Date March 6, 2020
Location Murphy room
Time 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm – Networking; 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm – Discussion
Sponsor: Center for IT & eBusiness (CITe)
Topic Description:
Many firms have now come to the realization that they need to train a good portion of their workforce to become more "data literate." At the same time, more "intelligence" is being incorporated into end-user tools. For example, Tableau 2019.4 can "explain" why a given data point differs from all the presence of other, potentially explanatory variables. We might think of this like adding power steering and automatic gear shifts to cars; suddenly there was the need to give driver's ed to millions more potential drivers. Come share how you are rolling out data literacy training, or if you are not, share why not.
