The Week in Vis: Week 06 (Oct 7-Oct 11)

in Weeks in Vis

This week, we’ll explicitly talk about scale: what do we do when the data gets big. This problem is pervasive: we’ve been dealing with it all along, and will continue to deal with it with everything else we talk about. This week, we’ll try to get some vocabulary to talk about the problems and their solutions.

Organizationally, this is a normal week. We’ll have classes with a mix of lectures (and maybe an ICE). There’s a content survey (but no class survey). There’s a discussion and a seek and find. And there’s a design exercise due.

Remainders from last Friday (10/4): Discussion 05, Seek and Find 05, DE05: Stories from Data (EDA)
