ASSESSMENT #2

Rationale: I used powerpoint to display my data and google docs ( spreadsheets and word docs) to collect and graph my infomation. I gathered infomation about my average week, music, travel time and countries ive visited it. I used hyperlinks and links to webistes in the presentation. Datavisualisation makes it easier to view lots of infomation in an eye catchy way! I collected data about myself and then compared some of the data with infomation found on websites and other media sources, the conclusions draw from this infomation make it clear that advertising and other makreting plans work and I, as a Web user are attracted to.

Datavisualisation

Data visualization is the study of the visual representation of data, defined as information which has been abstracted in some schematic form, including attributes or variables for the units of information. Just continued with my assessment on datavisualisation, which included gathering more infomation about myself and the put into grapgs and tables!
