| 1 | Explain the content of the lecture based on the syllabus.
How data will change society (1) How far should business people be able to do data science? | Understand the practical level of data science required in the business world, and understand the goal point we should aim for.
You will also learn about information security, which is important for using data. | I would like everyone to take on the challenge of data analysis, so I would like everyone to cooperate with the survey. Personal information will be completely confidential, so students are encouraged to complete this survey. Let's analyze everyone by ourselves! | Find websites and articles that use data to present analyses, such as the one I showed you during the lecture. Google Images search may be useful. Then, while using the data, analyze it in your own way and formulate improvement measures (management measures, policies, improvement plans for back services) from there. The material can be anything, whether it's a game, an app, a manga, an anime, a drama, or a YouTuber! |
| 2 | In Excel, find the "middle" of the data | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Feel free to use "everyone's data" to show the mean, median, and mode of a few questions, and then ask yourself "what can I say from that?" For example, if you were to apply the results to your business, what would you do? |
| 3 | How data will change society (2) What is AI? | Learn about the brief history of AI, its technical structure, and how it is put to practical use. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | What would you like to do with AI? Please take into account "what can be achieved with AI" and the prerequisites required for that, and then come up with new ideas for utilizing AI. |
| 4 | Know the "variance" of your data | You will be able to create bar charts and pie charts. I understand that these graphs are not childish tools, but the most important methods of statistics. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Freely select three questions from "Everyone's Data" and draw a bar chart or pie chart. From there, analyze what you can read. For example, if you were to use this in corporate management, what measures could you take? |
| 5 | How Data Changes Society (3) What is the Fourth Industrial Revolution? | Understand the concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and possible social changes | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Please introduce one of the news reports or actual products and services, and discuss what could happen in the Fourth Industrial Revolution around you. |
| 6 | Know the "relationship" between two numbers | Students will be able to understand the relationship between two types of variables, scatter plots and correlation, and apply them to management measures. | Nothing in particular | From "Everyone's Data", discover the relationship between two interesting variables in a scatter plot. From there, think about what you can say. |
| 7 | How data changes society (4) Application example of AI: Visualization of success probability of kurafan | understand the potential of AI | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Please consider "AI that is likely to be useful for earnings (acquisition of sales, customers, investment, etc.)" and "AI that is likely to be useful for reducing costs in society (reducing costs and resource consumption)." |
| 8 | Fundamentals of Statistics (4) Surprisingly easy to understand regression analysis and become self-effective | Be able to perform regression analysis yourself | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Using "everyone's data", feel free to perform regression analysis and think about what can be said from it. You can use the one you wrote the scatter plot on one more time. |
| 9 | How data will change society (5) Let's use AI | You will be able to use AI services on the web to think and do things
You will also learn what to keep in mind when using data and AI. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Please feel free to submit the results of your analysis using one of the various AI services introduced in the lecture. |
| 10 | What does "statistically significant" mean? | Understand what "statistically significant" is, which is often seen in papers and is also important in today's data science practice. You will be able to do it yourself in Excel. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Feel free to use "everyone's data" to perform a t-test to prove the difference between the two groups. Based on that, please discuss what kind of improvement measures are effective. |
| 11 | How Data Changes Society (6) DX and Data Science | Understand what the "after digital" changes that are occurring at the same time as the data science and AI revolution are, and how they relate to each other. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | Please introduce one thing that you think "this is what after-digital is" and think about what kind of data utilization is behind it. Don't worry if it doesn't suit you (no points will be deducted). It is important to be able to imagine that behind the digital services you are using is data and its use. |
| 12 | Practice: Strategic Theory of Probabilistic Thinking | Acquire the concept of conditional probability, which is effective in the probability analysis of occurrence of things, and be able to make measures using it. | Giving appropriate instructions in class | From "everyone's data", select variables that can be analyzed as percentages and probabilities, and create a model of conditional probabilities. Then, please think about what you can do to improve the probability (management measures, policies, service improvement plans, etc.). |
| 13 | How data will change society (7) Human resources needed in the Fourth Industrial Revolution | Understand the image of human resources required in the future data era and the organization and strategy required for DX | Nothing in particular | In anticipation of the coming era, if you were to work in a job that involves data, what kind of person would you be? Think about what skills you need to acquire to achieve this. |
| 14 | Sampling | Be able to conduct surveys properly | Nothing in particular | If you have a budget of 50,000 yen and decide to conduct a questionnaire using an Internet research company about "what you want to know", please design the target of the questionnaire and specific question items. (10 yen per question per person). |
