Data visualization (or data viz for short) has rapidly developed into a huge area of interest for a broad group of users including researchers, businesses, and anyone looking to effectively communicate a large amount of information to a specific audience. If you have a research question that utilizes data, data visualization and its associated tools can help you analyze and make sense of the information you have gathered. In this presentation, participants will: 

  •     Be introduced to what data visualization is and why it is both an important and relevant skill to learn in this day and age. 
  •     Learn more about the types of data visualizations available to choose from and reasons for using specific types of visualization. 
  •     Take a look at some resources available for learning more about different types of data visualizations and how to create them. 
  •     Explore some of the tools used to create data visualizations in a variety of fields. 
  •     Watch a video showcasing what a great visualization and presentation can look like. 
  •     Gain some useful tips on how to better design your next visualization.
