The beauty of data visualization - David McCandless

| Description | To create his infographic about nutritional supplements, it took McCandless a month to review about 1,000 medical studies and design the visual. Is that level of effort surprising, and do you think it’s worth it? Try out the interactive version that’s available on McCandless’s website. What engaged or surprised you? What, if anything, would you change to improve the user experience? Write a brief review and post it to the site. McCandless says that “absolute figures” aren’t as meaningful as “relative figures” and he uses data about military spending and troop size to make his point [10:26]. How do you think most figures are reported in the media? When you consider how the media reports statistics about teens, is there an example of how absolute and relative figures could lead people to draw different conclusions? Do some research, pick an example, and create a poster that sets the record straight. Information Is Beautiful FastCompany: Infographic of the Day Datavisualization.ch is the premier news and knowledge resource for data visualization and infographics. |
