How is data?
How is data? is the part 2 of our data series workshop (it’s okay if you missed the first part). After understanding who is data, we can now explore how data is processed and used to tell stories.
In this workshop we will discuss how to make decisions about our data (are outliers bad?), how data can be represented (why are pie charts so hard to read?), and how data is used to support the stories we want to tell (how are they trying to convince me that they are right?).
