Learning Outcomes

This assessment is designed to demonstrate a student’s completion of the following Learning Outcomes:

• Critically analyse and evaluate various statistical and computational techniques for analysing datasets and determine the most appropriate technique for a business problem;
• Critically evaluate, develop and implement solutions for processing datasets and solving complex problems in various environments using relevant programming paradigms;
• Evaluate and apply key steps and issues involved in data preparation, cleaning, exploring, creating, optimizing and evaluating models;
• Evaluate and apply aspects of data science applications and their use.

 

EDGE

The Cardiff Met EDGE supports students in graduating with the knowledge, skills, and attributes that allow them to contribute positively and effectively to the communities in which they live and work.
This module assessment provides opportunities for students to demonstrate development of the following EDGE Competencies:

ETHICAL	Students will be required to consider Ethical implication of their analysis and follow the necessary ethical approval processes while addressing problems associated with the assessment.
DIGITAL	Students will be required to demonstrate digital skills in the collation of data and analysis for their project.
GLOBAL	Students will demonstrate an awareness of the global context and apply this to their assessment
ENTREPRENEURIAL	Students will also demonstrate their developed entrepreneurial through working under their own initiative, formulating and presenting recommendations in order to solve an authentic and complex problem associated with the module.

 
 

Assessment Requirements / Tasks (include all guidance notes)

This assignment will use employment data of Wales from the StatsWales data source.  This dataset provides workplace employment estimates, or estimates of total jobs, for Wales and its NUTS2 areas, along with comparable UK data disaggregated by industry section.
For this assignment students will undertake a data analysis and machine learning approach to reveal the workplace employment landscape of Wales.

1.    Data processing

1.1. Download the dataset for the period 2009 – 2018 and create a dataframe that concatenates Wales (total) employment value only.

1.2. Check for any null value or outlier. If found replace that with mean value.

1.3. Change the name of the industries as bellow

The final dataframe should look like following

Industry	2009	2010	2011	2012	2013	2014	2015	2016	2017	2018
Agriculture
Production
Construction
Retail
ICT
Finance
Real_Estate
Professional_Service
Public_Adminstration
Other_Service

 

2.    Data analysis

For each question provide graph/chart along with your own interpretation (~ 50 words)

• Which industry employed highest and lowest workers over the period?
• Which industry has the highest and lowest overall growth over the period?
• Which years are the best and worst performing year in relation to number of employment. (highest and lowest employment)

3.    Visual analysis

Create a dynamic scatter/bubble plot showing the change of workforce number over the period using Plotly express.

4.    Correlation

• Taking average employment number for each industry over the period, show and identify the highest and lowest correlated industries.
• Make a year wise correlation for each industry. Does the aforementioned industries are also correlated over the each year? Explain your answer.

 

5. Clustering (k means & hierarchical)
   • Using the best and worst performing year column’s employment data (2.3) undertake a K means clustering analysis (K=2 & 3) and identify industries cluster together. Write your own interpretation (~100 words).
   • Using the same dataset (best & worst performing) create a hierarchical cluster. Compare the cluster with k means clusters.
6. Discussion

Provide a brief discussion (~ 300 words) on employment landscape of Wales based on the employment data analysis results.

Additional Information

Referencing Requirements (Harvard)

The Harvard (or author-date) format should be used for all references (including images).
Further information on Referencing can be found at Cardiff Met’s Academic Skills website.
 

Mitigating Circumstances

If you have experienced changes or events which have adversely affected your academic performance on the assessment, you may be eligible for Mitigating Circumstances (MCs). You should contact your Module Leader, Personal Tutor or Year Tutor in the first instance.
An application for MCs, along with appropriate supporting evidence, can be submitted via the following link to the MCs Dashboard
Applications for MCs should ideally be submitted as soon as possible after circumstances occur & at the time of the assessment. Applications must be submitted before the relevant Examination Board.
Further information on the Mitigating Circumstances procedure is available in the Academic Handbook (Volume 1, Section 5)
 

Unfair Practice

Cardiff Metropolitan University takes issues of unfair practice extremely seriously. The University has distinct procedures and penalties for dealing with unfair practice in examination or non-examination conditions. These are explained in full in the University’s Unfair Practice Procedure (Academic Handbook: Vol 1, Section 8)
Types of Unfair Practice, include:
Plagiarism, which can be defined as using without acknowledgement another person’s words or ideas and submitting them for assessment as though it were one’s own work, for instance by copying, translating from one language to another or unacknowledged paraphrasing. Further examples include:

• Use of any quotation(s) from the published or unpublished work of other persons, whether published in textbooks, articles, the Web, or in any other format, which quotations have not been clearly identified as such by being placed in quotation marks and acknowledged.
• Use of another person’s words or ideas that have been slightly changed or paraphrased to make it look different from the original.
• Summarising another person’s ideas, judgments, diagrams, figures, or computer programmes without reference to that person in the text and the source in a bibliography or reference list.
• Use of services of essay banks and/or any other agencies.
• Use of unacknowledged material downloaded from the Internet.
• Re-use of one’s own material except as authorised by the department.

Collusion, which can be defined as when work that that has been undertaken with others is submitted and passed off as solely the work of one person. An example of this would be where several students work together on an assessment and individually submit work which contains sections which are the same. Assessments briefs will clearly identify where joint preparation and joint submission is specifically permitted, in all other cases it is not.
Fabrication of data, making false claims to have carried out experiments, observations, interviews or other forms of data collection and analysis, or acting dishonestly in any other way.
