Students in the Data Visualization for All course come from several different countries, including Australia, Bangladesh, and Belgium.
- Story: Did the author clearly tell a meaningful story about the data, with text and visuals?
- No, this simple statement that students come from “several different countries” is not a very meaningful story.
- Chart Type: Did the author choose a chart type that best matches their data story?
- No. Although a vertical column chart is a good start, a horizontal bar chart would be a better match for these long labels.
- Embed: Did the author embed an interactive chart into the web page?
- No, when you try to float your cursor over the chart, it is a static image, not an interactive visualization.
- Good Design: Did the author follow principles of good chart design?
- No, the chart ignores several design principles, such as: - Failure to sort data into a meaningful order - Failure to declutter the chart by removing the unnecessary legend
Nations with the highest percentage of female students enrolled in Data Visualization for All are the Ukraine (51 percent) and Turkey (47 percent), based on preliminary data for those with high enrollment levels (25 or more students).
