Question Description
I'm working on a information technology question and need an explanation to help me learn.
“A picture is worth a thousand words” may be a lovely cliché, but it’s exactly the wrong way to view visualization. For this week's discussion question, please view the Periodic Table of Visualization at the following link (http://www.visual-literacy.org/periodic_table/periodic_table.html). Choose one Data Visualization and one Compound Visualization by placing your mouse cursor over each option. Provide your classmates with a brief description of your choices and explain why you made your choices. Also, describe what advantage do your choices have over the others.
Students should engage on three separate days (the initial post by Wednesday and two additional days with peers by Saturday) with peers with substantive posts. Be sure to refer to the grading rubric for additional discussion board requirements.
