Hi, everyone! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to our OER for week 11: Data Visualization! This week, we will be touching on:\u00a0https:\/\/etecubc2022.wixsite.com\/etec522-data-visuali<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. What is data visualization? How do we see it and interact with it in our everyday lives? How do we use it in education?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. How can data visualization be applied in education – and what are some of the tools to use, and what is their potential?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. What exactly is the future of data visualization – and how does AI play a part? What are the opportunities, and at the same time, what are the risks?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    While you are looking through our website this week, please navigate yourself through our various activities – there are many, so we hope this OER will keep you entertained – including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Tell us where you live your life – and see across a constantly-developing map where your peers do the same (note that this can be done anonymously)! <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Discuss how you have used data visualization: whether this be in your workplace, education, or your personal life. Give us an example!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Watch a few TED Talks about data visualization, and let us know what your main takeaways were.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Participate in a poll to vote on your favorite data visualization tool!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Have you found a tool or resource YOU like? Add it to our OER – and see the toolbox archive which you can use for a later date.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Play the Infinite Drum Machine to create beats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. Use Chart AI to create your own mind map. Like Chat GPT – ask it anything – and see the data visualization it comes up with for you!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    8. Look through the t-SNE Map and find a piece of art that speaks to you!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Finally, we hope you enjoy learning about and interacting with data visualization by using Padlet to start discussions with your peers, play with maps, and use our resources to connect the worlds of science and art.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Discussion questions are included within the OER for you to participate in, or otherwise, please join the discussion below by answering a few questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. How have you used data visualization in your world – whether that be your workplace, education, or personal life? Give an example of what it may have looked like.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. After watching the TED Talks, in what ways do you see data visualization being used effectively in educational settings to enhance learning and information literacy skills?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. After exploring the OER and learning about data visualization, can you think of any additional opportunities or risks? <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        We hope you enjoy this week\u2019s OER! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
