For two weeks, she dissected a large oil company\u2019s data set, examining factors such as search term popularity (i.e. most, middle, and least popular terms), time factors, big data trends, and unexpected\/expected structural pairings. Her process was especially useful as a starting guideline for analyzing substantial amounts of data \u2013 I can see myself applying related searches for future projects.<\/p><p>Furthermore, in her feminist data set, she supplied an inclusive environment for designers (intersectional feminism) and data types. Often, online sources discourage using Wikipedia or personal blog posts as references; however, she openly encouraged these kinds of avenues in her quest for equal data.<\/p><p>Caroline was also a resourceful host, offering tips and tricks for MGD students to succeed and find jobs. I appreciated her insights, and look forward to viewing her future works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A snippet into analyzing big data with Caroline Sinders. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":3661,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[24,339,30,56,188,15],"class_list":["post-3657","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-we-network","tag-datavis","tag-data","tag-design","tag-privacy","tag-provocation","tag-research","entry-card--square"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MOSHED-2020-1-21-15-2-47.gif","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p86O3z-WZ","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3657","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3657"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3657\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3660,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3657\/revisions\/3660"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3661"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3657"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3657"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/academics.design.ncsu.edu\/yesand\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3657"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
