The Project

The project is a before-after comparison, so ideally it should start before you watch the video lessons. Select or make a chart that you can share and that reflects how you/your organization visualizes data currently. After watching the video lessons, tell us what could be changed to improve the chart or redesign it.

Upload the chart(s) and comment on the changes. Here are a few topics you could discuss:

Was it the right chart type to convey the message?
Is the chart effective at delivering it?
Are there unnecessary effects?
Is color used with a purpose and aligned with the question?
How do the supporting objects (axis, gridlines) help reading the chart?
Does it need a legend?
Does it need annotations?
Is the chart a trustworthy transcription of the data table?
