Assignment: FORENSIC DESIGN ASSESSMENTS
This task relates to a sequence of assessments that will be repeated across Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Select any example of a visualisation or infographic, maybe your own work or that of others. The task is to undertake a deep, detailed ‘forensic' like assessment of the design choices made across each of the five layers of the chosen visualisation's anatomy. In each case your assessment is only concerned with one design layer at a time.
For this task, take a close look at the interactivity choices:
1. Start by identifying all the interactive features deployed, listing them under the headers of either data or presentation adjustments
2. How suitable are the choices and deployment of these interactive features? If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
3. Go through the set of ‘Influencing factors' from the latter section of the book's chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how you might tackle this design layer differently
4. Also, considering the range of potential interactive features and functions, what would you do differently or additionally?
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
