How to teach Data Visualisation to Fresh Statisticians: A Case Study in Turkey

Ozancan Özdemir, Ceylan Yozgatlıgil

This article presents the content, objectives, and student opinions regarding the first-year compulsory data processing and visualisation course taught in English, which is the first of its kind in Turkey. After exploring the academic and industrial applications of data visualisation and examining the tools used, the article highlights that the content developed was well-received by students. It was observed that all students developed a positive attitude towards data visualisation by the end of the semester. The students particularly enjoyed the group project, which involved data analysis and reporting using the Python programming language, as it allowed them to apply the data processing and visualisation steps and create a data analysis report.
