Chapter 6 Module 5: Telling the Story - Visualization and Communication
Welcome to the culminating skill of data science—communicating your findings effectively so others can understand and act on them! This module focuses on how to create clear visualizations and compelling narratives that make data accessible and meaningful to different audiences.
Visualization and Communication isn’t about creating fancy graphics or impressive presentations. It’s about developing the empathy and clarity to think, “How can I help others understand what this data means and why it matters to them?” The best data science in the world is useless if it can’t be understood and applied by the people who need it.
Data storytelling is an extremely important piece of the data process.
By the end of this module, you’ll have practical strategies to help your students create clear and appropriate visualizations, craft compelling data stories, adapt their communication for different audiences, and use their findings to inform decisions and advocate for change.
