Select a sample dataset of your interest from Tableau’s sample data website . Create a dashboard or storyboard that meets the following criteria:

• You need to have at least two different types of visualizations for your dashboard or storyboard, such as a map, a bar graph, a line graph, a boxplot, or a tree map.
• You need to create a filter for users to interact with your visualization. Your filter needs to be applied to all of your visualizations, i.e. if the user changes something, all of the visualizations will change accordingly.
• Create your account and publish your dashboard or storyboard to Tableau public.
