This workshop is a concept-based overview of visualization better practices. Learn how to choose what variables are included; understand human perceptual abilities; and adjust your graphs for improved communication.

By the end of Data-Driven Visualizations, you should be able to

• choose appropriate visualizations based on your question, data types, and format
• make design choices that account for human perceptual abilities
• highlight, organize, and contextualize your data accessibly

For any questions, please contact the instructor.
