Makeover Monday is a super fun data visualization challenge. For this project, you will
first choose a project, clean the data for the project and come up with questions to tell a
story about the dataset you have chosen for the project. Then, you will analyze and

to create a dashboard and a story board.
write a short paper on the data visualization process by addressing the following questions:
• How was the data imported and analyzed?

• What is the purpose of your story and what do you want your viewer’s journey to be?
For this project, you will create a dashboard and a voice over video on your story board
for your project. You will create the final deliverables to present your story. You will be
presenting your findings in a multi-slide Story Points presentation to your peers by
making a short 3–5-minute video and submitting your Tableau workbook that consists of
your charts, dashboard and the story.
