Excel by a group of 3 students. This group wanted a simple andappealing user interface displaying four different data (wave height, dissolved oxygen, watertemperature, and air temperature) with bar charts. In the center of the GUI, two filters were placedfor users to select data ranges for display, and user-friendly instructions were provided between thefilters, i.e., "How to Use the Dashboard: Use Control+Left Click to Select Data Range." For thebackground image, the Bicentennial Tower and the US Brig Niagara (a wooden-hulled snow-brig)were used for an aspect of creative design. In contrast, the dashboard in Figure 1(b) wasimplemented in Python by another group of 3 students. This GUI also processes four different dataas in the first example
