Exercise 26

With the explosive popularity of data visualization, visual media such as infographics will be around for a long time. Infographics share complex information quickly and clearly: they are readable, visually appealing, and content rich. As you examine excellent examples of infographics, you'll see how engaging they can be for presenting business-related information.
Your Task. Find an infographic that visualizes intriguing business-relevant data. Look for the sources of the information (usually near the bottom in small print), and check to see that they are reliable. Answer the following questions, and prepare a short presentation on your findings: How much statistical information is provided in the infographic? Is the purpose of the infographic clear? Is the information clearly presented, easy to read, visually appealing, and insightful? Show your infographic and share your findings orally or in writing.
