SUMMARY:AMSSA Lecture: Telling a Story Through Data Visualization
DESCRIPTION:Settlement and integration service providers collect and use data on a daily basis. While the data we collect is essential\, interpreting the meaning of the data can be a challenge. The AMSSA Lecture: Telling a Story Through Data Visualization will get you thinking about the data you collect and how you can use it to tell a story. Sandra Schinnerl will explore what data visualization tools can do to transform the data you have to convey your intended message to external stakeholders\, staff in your organization\, Board of Directors\, governments\, and funding agencies. You do not need to be a computer scientist or a special programmer to work with data. Discover the stories hidden within and share those stories with the world in the form of charts\, maps\, and infographics.  \nIn this lecture you will: \n\nReflect on the data you have and how you can harness it to tell a story about the work you do\nHave conversations about the data available in the settlement sector and the data you might need in the future\nReceive examples of national immigration data that has been transformed into visuals  \n\nThis lecture will provide you with some insights into using and framing your organization’s data more effectively. It is also an opportunity to provide feedback on your future data needs to be reflected in a Canadian immigration data visualization project.  \n  \nSpeaker: \nSandra Schinnerl is a doctoral candidate at the University of British Columbia and her research looks at the intersections between immigration and education policy. She is a member of the advisory group for the UBC Centre for Migration Studies and is involved in its Data Hub Project that is focused on immigration data visualizations. She has been involved in a number of large data projects related to both immigration pathways and international students for government and professional associations as well in her research.  \nSandra Schinnerl is an Associate Faculty member of Royal Roads University and a UBC Public Scholar. Prior to her PhD studies. Sandra worked in the field of international education as a practitioner and senior administrator for more than 25 years. \n  \nRegistration Details:\n\nDate: Tuesday March 23\, 2021\nTime: 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm (Pacific Time)\nLocation: Zoom | Event details will be sent after registration \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER\nRegistration deadline: Monday March 22\, 2021 at 11:59 PM (PST)
