Introductions
Data visualizations can be used in many different ways. They paint a picture of data to make it easier to interpret and understand. They are important for decision-makers because it gives them the opportunity to see analytical results presented visually, find relevance among variables, and predict the future.
Instructions
Imagine that the director of your department has tasked you with creating a presentation for your organization that illustrates a health issue.
Go to the Library and research a health topic (obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, etc.). Locate scholarly sources that represent the data in a visual way (infographics, charts, graphs, etc.). Data visualizations may come from the CDC, NIH, American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association, National Association of Mental Illness, American Cancer Society, etc. You must use highly credible sources.
Use the template provided in the Course Documents area to complete your Assignment.
