Upcoming Webinar – Data Visualization for Evaluation

The American Evaluation Association (AEA) will be hosting a Coffee Break Webinar later this month called, “Data Visualization for Evaluation: Critical Thinking Skills, Design Principles, and Technical How-Tos”.

See below for the description from the AEA:

Want to visualize your data, but not sure where to start? Have a gut feeling that you’re not getting the most out of common software like Microsoft Excel? This eStudy is for you!

Effective data visualization requires two skillsets: critical thinking skills to match stakeholders’ information needs and data literacy level, and technical skills to build visualizations in software programs. During this eStudy, you’ll learn to select appropriate chart types; emphasize key findings with color; and take the guesswork out of your graphs through titles, subtitles, and annotations. You’ll also learn four techniques for creating advanced visualizations in Microsoft Excel. We’ll conclude with strategies for sharing visualizations through animated videos, handouts, slidedocs, social media, and dashboards. Want a preview of the content?
