🧠 Learn about:
- How to check if there is a story contained within your data.
- Easy ways to check your calculations.
- The most common journalist calculations, with a few examples.
- The importance of proper data visualization and some software recommendations.
- How to accurately fact-check dubious claims with a step-by-step guide.
