From Data Visualization to Role-Specific Data Discovery

From DataVisualization to
Role-Specific Data Discovery
xAPI Cohort Fall 2017

First things first. Let’s get a little context.

Experience data is a combination of
activity, learning, behavior, and
performance data.
By unifying data from across
organizational data sources, insights
into engagement, learning effectiveness,
information use, and team behaviors
can be identified and applied to
improve business outcomes.
Yet Analytics turns this experience data
into experience intelligence.
We’re talking about Experience.

Experience data is collected and connected
from a modular ecosystem using xAPI.

Experience data allows us to create beautiful
and impactful data visualizations.

But let’s face it.We’ve been visualizing data for
hundreds of years.

We visualize data so that we can see patterns.

11
What qualities make for good data discovery?

12
Let the user ask questions.
When you’re designing the interface, consider how users will be able to
ask questions.
Build interaction tools directly into the visual display where possible;
intuitive interaction allows for more fluid discovery.

15
Help the user see relationships between
different variables.
Consider the visual space and all the visual dimensions you can use to
convey information.
Color, shape, size, spatial organization, line thickness, hover / interactive
detail.
2. Multidimensional

A good visualization conveys information in a dramatically smaller
footprint than the same data presented tabularly.
Different graph types imply different kinds of relationships – use the
ones that work with your data, not against it.
19
Use visualization types that match your
data sets.
3. Visually Efficient
