Data Visualization: Tools and Techniques
2020
A well-designed data visualization can transform understanding of complex global challenges. Translating data into a visual format that supports easy interpretation, however, is an art that requires careful selection of the right chart type. A variety of digital tools exist to aid in the design of effective data visualizations.
To support educators, the Global Health Education and Learning Incubator at Harvard University (GHELI) has curated a few of these tools that encourage data literacy skills. The variety of resource types are well-suited for integration into the classroom, hybrid, or online learning environments. Most of these resources are accessible for free. Educators may wish to incorporate data visualization activities into course assignments or projects.
The Global Health Education and Learning Incubator at Harvard University supports interdisciplinary education about world health through the production, curation, and dissemination of educational public goods.
