Data visualization course
In this college/graduate-level course, Dr. Jonathan Stray shares materials for students to learn how to clean up data and use software to create data visualizations.
Data Displays
Data Display Project
In this project, students will find a real, published data display and analyze and critique it. Give students a few days to find their data display (they may need a check-in to make sure they’ve got something suitable), and a few days to write their report.
Relative Frequency and Stem and Leaf Worksheets
In this worksheet, students will make ogives and stem-and-leaf plots. This should take 20–30 minutes to complete.
Improving Data Displays Activity
In this activity, students will analyze a real data display and compare it to an alternative for clarity, insight, and usefulness. This should take 15–20 minutes to complete.
