Thanks! Another important person that you should ask to involve is “the boss”. Leadership commitment is one of a successful factor to drive the project.

Thanks for sharing! Yes, gaining on IT, data analysis, and management skills would really differentiate the informaticians from other public health/health practitioners.

Yes, public health or community health is as important as clinical practice. Good public health management would help cut down number of unnecessary patients in the hospital. Healthcare staff can pay more attention to those who really need help. I’m glad to hear that you want to learn more about IT and management skills. These will certainly h…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing! People have different personality and style in communication. It would be good to understand yourself and knowing others to get an effective communication.

I think one of important skills for statisticians is database and data management skills. The quality and integrity of your analysis output will largely depend on the quality of data input into the analysis. It would be great if you could be able to involve in the data collection, database setup, or data management processes.

Thank you! You mention about working with multidisciplinary team. Sometimes you don’t really need to have the knowledge regarding those multidisciplines, but you need to understand their working process. Empathy is another important skills when working in team.

Yes, communication and team leading is the important skills in public health practices. On the job training is the most useful way to learn. What we learn in the class will only provide you concept and some examples that you can apply to your real work.

Thanks for sharing!

Agree that working in public health field (actually in any fields) requires multidisciplinary approach. What about knowledge and skills on IT and management, would you think they are important for improving and sustaining the project?

Great! With public health background, having IT knowledge and skills would be very important to strengthen your career in public health informatics. Management skills would also important when you have to work on Health IT project.

Nice, simple but informative dashboard. I personally like to gold color. However, the bright read color on black background is not good for the eyes. You may try to adjust the tone of red color a bit.

When presenting number in Million unit, please be careful as when we filter down to a particular country the number of case/death may not reach…[Read more]

Yes, I also like the buttons to select regions and also the slicers. However the graph of confirmed and death is a bit too crowded and difficult to see (if we do not expand the graph size). The two donut charts look nice. It would be great if you could arrange the color order in the two charts to be the same. This would be helpful if some one want…[Read more]

Nice dashboard! Black background and yellow font is a good match. However, as Naphat’s suggestion, the font color in some graphs may be a bit difficult to read. Another thing is the numbers appear on the right top corner and in the table are arranged without “,” to separate the digits. It may be difficult to read— go back to chunking memory.…[Read more]

Agree with Navinee. I like the idea that you created a separate dashboard for Thailand border. This requires not only dashboard building skill, but also data analysis and decision making skills. Great Job!

My suggestion would be on the background color for Thailand border dashboard. The background color of graphs has high contrast, black & white.…[Read more]

Great! Agree with everyone that your dashboard looks impressive. The color background makes that dashboard more attractive. The arrangement of graphs doesn’t make the dashboard look too crowded.

Good work! The dashboard is easy to follow. It would be great if you could add a filter that we can select the data by regions. Now, we can only select by country from the table and map. It would also be good if you could have a text show last update data. Thanks!

Great! I like that you use slicer on the y-axis for the daily confirm chart. This is another solution when you have number of deaths within the same graph as number of confirmed cases.

Well done, everyone!

Nice! It would be great if the last scatter plot graph can be more interactive.

As this week’s assignment aims to make sure that you can practice all the graphs that we taught. You dashboard is not included all graphs assigned. Please add other graphs that are still missing.

Here is the graphs that we would like you to make this week.
1. Bar or Stacked bar chart
2. Stacked and Clustered column chart
3. Pie or Donut chart o…[Read more]

Great!!! I like the arrangement of different sections in the dashboard. The color scheme looks clear and clean. However, some graphs (in the middle) do not have title, so we don’t exactly know what are they? Overall, the dashboard looks good.
