The Titanic disaster is a topic that continues to fascinate. As the importance of analytics continues to grow in industry, data literacy skills have become increasingly important in business education. This project allows students to use the passenger data from the Titanic to build their data literacy skills using an engaging, experiential topic. The project requires students to extract, transform, describe, analyze, and draw conclusions regarding the factors that impacted survival on the Titanic. The project can be deployed using various application software and tools. We describe how the assignment can be completed using Excel, Tableau, and Python using the Pandas library.
