n this week’s meeting we got to attend a data visualization workshop. It was truly interesting and enlightening to me because I only briefly covered this subject in the past. It helped me understand more about data which is the subject of my current session right now. Meeting new classmates and new professors was really nice as well. Overall the class was very active and participative which is good for students to follow and get into it. Exactly what you expect from a workshop.
We started off by refreshing our minds with some definitions and explanations about data visualization. According to the session, a simple definition of data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. You can use different tools to present your data such as charts, graphs, and maps. We learned about how important is targeting your audience in data visualization. Knowing your audience and addressing their needs is the step one. It allows the viewers to process and read the data quickly and simply.
I believe that digital information speak more to people than information told with words. In my opinion it is easier and quicker to understand a digital fact. During the class someone even said in the chat “A picture is worth a thousand words” and I found it truly accurate about dashboards.
We ended the class by using Tableau which was totally new for me. We got separated in break rooms in order to complete an exercise. In my group (2) we had to answer questions about Pokemon: what is the strongest Pokémon, what generation has the most types of Pokémon and so on. First of all we realized that we needed to understand the data before moving forward with anything else. We then all tried to figure the information out and give a picture as an answer. Thank you to the teacher who came to the room to save us at some point. The exercise was not an easy feat overall. When we went back to the main room we all presented our answers and it was really fulfilling to listen to every group’s presentation and way of thinking/working. The different skills levels among the students were actually really helpful for people like me for example. It allowed me to understand some things through my classmates as well. I had no experience with Tableau and data visualization but the group cohesion and different levels of experiences worked out well.
