LO3.4 Stages of Data Analysis

identify the need

• where the objectives of any data analysis program will be set. this would include the information that is required from the completed project.
• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.
• this final stage of the process is where the results are published so that stakeholders may inspect them. this may be in the form of a written, printed report or could be pages on a website, for example.
• pie chart
• the planners of some project should be able to identify a wide range of sources to ensure that the information gathered is suitable. provides enough information to cover the objectives and is unbiased.

define scope

• This stage defines the restrictions on the project. for example, the overall budget may be set, or sometimes by which the information must be available identified.
• the planners of some project should be able to identify a wide range of sources to ensure that the information gathered is suitable. provides enough information to cover the objectives and is unbiased.
• information may be presented in many different ways. charts and graphs present information visually. so that patterns may be identified.
• pie chart
• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.

identify potential sources

• the planners of some project should be able to identify a wide range of sources to ensure that the information gathered is suitable. provides enough information to cover the objectives and is unbiased.
• Suitable for a particular person, condition, occasion, or place
• This stage defines the restrictions on the project. for example, the overall budget may be set, or sometimes by which the information must be available identified.
• information may be presented in many different ways. charts and graphs present information visually. so that patterns may be identified.
• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.

sources of information

• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.
• the planners of some project should be able to identify a wide range of sources to ensure that the information gathered is suitable. provides enough information to cover the objectives and is unbiased.
• this final stage of the process is where the results are published so that stakeholders may inspect them. this may be in the form of a written, printed report or could be pages on a website, for example.
• this is the stage at which the data that has been collected is entered into software and analysed. for example, data could be entered into a spreadsheet and a graph to show the information visually.
• pie chart

select the most appropriate tools

• information may be presented in many different ways. charts and graphs present information visually. so that patterns may be identified.
• pie chart
• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.
• line graph
• This stage defines the restrictions on the project. for example, the overall budget may be set, or sometimes by which the information must be available identified.

process and analyse data

• this is the stage at which the data that has been collected is entered into software and analysed. for example, data could be entered into a spreadsheet and a graph to show the information visually.
• Capable of being but not yet in existence
• the planners of some project should be able to identify a wide range of sources to ensure that the information gathered is suitable. provides enough information to cover the objectives and is unbiased.
• line graph
• Suitable for a particular person, condition, occasion, or place

record and store information

• this is the stage at which any report into the findings is written. this includes all of the results that have been processed.
• this is the stage at which the data that has been collected is entered into software and analysed. for example, data could be entered into a spreadsheet and a graph to show the information visually.
• pie chart
• where the objectives of any data analysis program will be set. this would include the information that is required from the completed project.
• line graph

share results

• this final stage of the process is where the results are published so that stakeholders may inspect them. this may be in the form of a written, printed report or could be pages on a website, for example.
• Suitable for a particular person, condition, occasion, or place
• this is the stage at which any report into the findings is written. this includes all of the results that have been processed.

• Capable of being but not yet in existence

what does "potential" mean?

• Capable of being but not yet in existence
• information may be presented in many different ways. charts and graphs present information visually. so that patterns may be identified.
• this is the stage at which the data that has been collected is entered into software and analysed. for example, data could be entered into a spreadsheet and a graph to show the information visually.
• line graph
• pie chart

what does "appropriate" mean?

• Suitable for a particular person, condition, occasion, or place
• this is the stage where the information is gathered and is best selected. the gathering process use existing information; for example, sales figures or population growth projections.
• Capable of being but not yet in existence
• pie chart
