Visualizing 2018 Library Survey of All Students Data with Tableau

April 23, 2019November 4, 2019janezhaoLeave a comment

The 2018 Library Survey of All Students Data includes three surveys: undergraduates (SAS), exiting seniors (SES), and graduate students (GRSAS). Users are able to filter responses by the three groups.
Since all of the multiple-choice questions had a five-point scale, we assigned values of 1 (most negative response) to 5 (most positive response) to each student response to assign average values to each option. This helps us show what in Fondren is most and least important to students.
The open text responses were coded into general categories (i.e. positive, neutral, and feedback), which can also be filtered and browsed.

Thanks to the great help of Mang Sun, system librarian, DMC is able to offer its first workshop on Tableau Public in Spring 2017. The Introduction to Tableau Public workshop uses the DMC equipment circulation data as a sample data set to explore basic features and functions of Tableau Public. You could tell the equipment checkout trend, patterns, and interesting findings based on the data of 2014, 2015, and 2016.
