Tutorial on Data Visualisation

Create a suitable Figure to communicate a self-select aspect of the World Bank Singapore data, perhaps in an international context. A data set, to inform the select Figure, can be downloaded from, for example, the World Bank Singapore website, WB Singapore or Yahoo Finance.

For Recommendation:

The selected Figure can relate to the time series of GDP, stock prices, unemployment or CO2 emissions and perhaps cross-country analyses, or to any subset of these data but also to any other financial/economic data which you may find to be of interest.

Begin the exercise with a 'default' Figure (e.g. in Excel), to present a pertinent economic or financial

data set. Clarify and illustrate the decisions taken to generate the 'finalized' Figure.

Don't neglect to indicate an audience for your figure - people who can make a decision regarding the

information contained in your Figure. Justify a choice of display, declutter it and draw attention to

what you want to emphasise.

Evaluate:

(1) A finalized Figure and a sequence of Figures to arrive at the finalized Figure

(2) Using bullet points to discuss the design choices made between

the 'default' initial Figure (likely a very poor data visualisation graphic) and the finalized Figure.
