DescriptionHi, my name is Clara and I am a Complex Systems researcher and Data Visualization professor at the University.
In this course, I'm going to teach you how to use the ggDescription2 package of R to draw amazing charts that are able to communicate what your data has to say in the most polished, professional way.
Currently, ggDescription2 is the most powerful tool for building professional graphics. First, because this is a package available in R, which is one of the most used programming languages for Data Science and related fields. So, it is very convenient to be able to produce graphics in the same environment where you already do all of your calculations. Second, because it is the most flexible tool to build graphs. So, even if you don't use R for your analyses, it is worth it to use ggDescription2 to draw your Descriptions, because there's no other tool that will give you the results that you can achieve using ggDescription2.
Right now, the top agencies for Data Visualization are using ggDescription2 to present their data. But still, ggDescription2 is a tool that not everybody knows how to use, because of its long learning curve. Because of this, some people turn to other tools, like for example, Microsoft Excel, a tool that is not genuinely made for Data Visualization purposes. So, why don't you take the amazing opportunity of learning ggDescription2 now and standing out from the crowd?
When I started learning ggDescription2 some years ago, I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of functions and parameters, and also, I had never used R at the time. But I knew there wasn't any other comparable tool out there. So, I decided to learn it from the grounds, which took me a while! Of course you can watch some tutorials, and learn how to do certain kinds of Descriptions, but I soon realized this wasn't enough to use ggDescription in an independent, confindent manner. This course that I'm offering to you today is the course that I wished had existed when I was learning ggDescription2. It would have saved me hours and hours of reading books, manuals, the documentation, and endless trial and error.
In this course I've followed a methodology that has proven to work over the years with my students at the University, which is: to truly master ggDescription2 you need to learn its core: the grammar of graphics. But, learning this alone might be a little tough, so I've created a series of lessons that first cover a certain part of the grammar, and then we move on to learning how to draw particular Descriptions. Both of these types of lessons are fully hands-on, so you won't be bored one second!
I really encourage you to make the decision of starting to learn ggDescription2, it'll be a skill that you'll use for years to come and which will make a great difference in your career. I promise you won't regret it.
*This course covers the ggDescription2 3.3.0 version (the latest release).
