Research Assignment- Data Collection Techniques
Background: As noted by Kirk (2016), working with data is one of the four stages of the visualization workflow. According to Kirk (2016), "A dataset is a collection of data values upon which a visualization is based." In this course, we will be using datasets that have already been collected for us. Data can be collected by various collection techniques.
