Big Data Visualization: Changing How You See Data

Big Data Visualization: Changing How You See Data | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Big data is revolutionizing the way businesses gather and analyze data. Ultimately, it is optimizing the speed and efficiency of the decision making process. While advanced analysis tools bolster the information gathering and analysis of data, purely numerical models can be difficult for anyone who isn’t an IT guru to read.

Visualization tools take the data gathered by your company and make it palatable. Analyses can be difficult to comprehend, but once it is put into context through the use of visual aids like length, position, size and color, the outputs no longer look like hieroglyphs. The proper big data visualization tool can create visuals based on human preference and perception. That’s right, it even analyzes data to decide how to best present data to you.

By putting statistics into pictorial format, it allows those you to make tough business and marketing decisions by helping you see analytics like IT specialists. Visually appealing data enables you to identify trends and have a better grasp of previously unnoticed causes and effects. Infographics, geographic maps, and enhanced pie and bar graphs and time-series charts can bring to life to show data in real-time.

To Become a More Visionary Leader, Become Stronger at Visualization

To Become a More Visionary Leader, Become Stronger at Visualization | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
To Become a More Visionary Leader, Become Stronger at Visualization

In our research with thousands of leaders, one skill stands out — by far — as the most common improvement area: their ability to sell a vision to employees. Over 50 percent of leaders we’ve assessed struggle to demonstrate this form of visionary leadership, a larger deficiency percentage than for any other leadership skill. Leaders are consistently unable to vividly paint a compelling picture of the future in a way that inspires others to follow them along a challenging route toward a new business reality. This is an improvement area for most leaders because it requires them to synthesize and clarify ambiguous, complex business concepts into a clear path forward.

Not only do we lead the students to achieve, but we want to educate them to become the leaders.  Ensuring they are able to achieve this, we need to learn the skills to develop their capability and confidence in this area.
