Introduction
This course will benefit individuals by upgrading their technical knowledge and skills in the area of visual analytics, which can be used in Information and communications technology (ICT) sectors to aid in analyzing any kind of data.
This course aims to get learners to know the following:
• The concept of information visualization, with emphasis on human visual perception and media components (e.g., word, number, color, shape, texture, image, and graph), and the fundamental issues regarding the use of visualization techniques.
• Visualization design principles in various situations and contexts from the perspective of cognitive psychology and human visual perception.
• Coding skills and application awareness in interactive media and visual information processing.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Information Management and Analytics
- FlexiMasters
in Information Management and Analytics
- Master of Science in Information Systems
At the end of this course, learners should be able to:
• Define each step of the information visualization pipeline including data selection, representation, presentation, and interaction.
• Synthesize best design practices for information visualization and thoughtfully critique existing visualizations.
• Perform basic coding using software tools to apply visualization concepts on small practical visualization projects.
To meet the requirement of SkillsFuture Singapore, assessment(s) will be conducted during every course. The assessment(s) include:
- Individual Assignment
- Group Assignment
- Class Assignment
Working adults from the industry with some experience in information technology and related fields would better appreciate the course.
Good communication skills (written and spoken English) are recommended as some assessment components may require presentations and report writing.
