Data Visualization Praxis project guidelines/examples

Posted on by

As promised, here’s an overview of the DataVis Praxis project, due 10/21 for those who choose this option over the text analysis option due later this term.

Visualization Assignment (Due Date 10/21)

Create a data visualization using one of the tools described in “Digital Humanities Tools: Data Visualization Tools” (I suggest starting with Tableau Public or Palladio, especially if you are new to datavis). As with the mapping praxis assignment, you may create any type of visualization you’d like; I just want you to attempt working with one of these pieces of datavis software. Since we’ve already done a mapping praxis assignment, please avoid a geospatial visualization.

Please create a blog post describing your experience(s) creating the data visualization and connect your experience(s) with one or two readings from class thus far, particularly from the “Data and Visualization” week.

Examples from past 700 students:

Lots more to look at at the 2020 site if you want more examples.

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks: 

Here is some inline `code`.
