The Project Presentation
Your Goal
Present a Data Science project you have done to a mixed technical and non-technical audience. Describe the relevance of the project, e.g. a business case with projected cost vs. gain for a company, or the value for a person. Cover the data, the technologies used, the overall project structure, the results and your interpretation. Use visualizations to illustrate your points. Choose a clear structure consisting of 3-4 major parts that are clearly discernible. In a nutshell, use everything you learned in the previous four projects.
Your project presentation becomes unique if you include your motivation behind the project. Why did you choose this project? Why did you choose those technologies? It should become clear that you are the best possible person for this project.
