A seven-step framework will be used to provide practical checklists and processes for building data products that are suitable for diverse cultural settings and communities. You will work individually and together in small groups with simple data sets and graphics to apply the lessons learned. The hands-on activities include non-technical experiences using Lego bricks, modeling clay, crayons, and tiles and technical practice using Excel.
The workshop will include:
- An overview of culturally responsive and equitable data and data visualization.
- Step by step checklists to embed cultural responsiveness into your work.
- Hands-on non-technical exercises that provide direct experience in what equity in data viz feels and looks like.
- Hands-on practice building culturally responsive data visualizations in Excel.
