#data interactivity

[interactivej]

Course: Data Visualization

We swim in a world of data – from election results, budgets, and census reports, to Facebook updates and image uploads. Journalists need to know how to find stories in data and shape them in compelling ways. This hands-on course teaches you how to gather, analyze, and visualize interactive data-driven stories.

This rapidly expanding discipline touches on information and interactivity design, mapping, graphing, animation tools, and data analysis.

Participants are expected to pitch, report, and produce stories working alone and in teams.

You’ll learn to use online Web tools such as Google Fusion Tables, Refine, and Maps, and integrate them in a non code-intensive development environment. Familiarity with HTML/CSS is helpful, but not required. This is not a course in coding, but programmers of all skill levels are welcome. Prerequisites: None

Instructors: Miguel Paz
