About this course: In this third course of the specialization, we’ll drill deeper into the tools Tableau offers in the areas of charting, dates, table calculations and mapping. We’ll explore the best choices for charts, based on the type of data you are using. We’ll look at specific types of charts including scatter plots, Gantt charts, histograms, bullet charts and several others, and we’ll address charting guidelines. We’ll define discrete and continuous dates, and examine when to use each one to explain your data. You’ll learn how to create custom and quick table calculations and how to create parameters. We’ll also introduce mapping and explore how Tableau can use different types of geographic data, how to connect to multiple data sources and how to create custom maps.
Who is this class for: This course is primarily aimed at individuals with some fundamental data visualization knowledge, who are familiar with Tableau, and want to increase their knowledge in explanatory analysis. This course is intended for those taking this course as part of the Specialization, and for those who have some experience working with data and data sets.

Amazing :)
Good course, correct level of detail but need to provide grading rubrics for peer graded submissions as part of the directions rather than finding out what is needed after submitting.
Great course! It would be better if there are more hands on exercise added.
