DataBytes: Five Ways That Data Visualizations Can Mislead (And How To Fix Them)

February 14, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

The National Consortium for Data Science (NCDS), is pleased to announce the return of DataBytes, a free webinar series designed to showcase diverse and innovative work in data science.

Visualizations allow people to readily analyze and communicate data. However, many common visualization designs lead to engaging imagery but false conclusions. By understanding what people see when they look at a visualization, we can design visualizations that support more accurate data analysis and avoid unnecessary biases.

Join UNC Computer Science Assistant Professor Danielle Szafir on Tuesday, Feb. 14, from 12-1 p.m. ET, as she walks us through best practices in data visualization and analysis. We’ll hold a Q&A session with Dr. Szafir at the end of the meeting.
