Web Dev 2A: Data Visualization

How can you take a large set of data and turn it into an info-graphic that conveys the information in an interesting manner? If this is something you are interested in, then you’ve found the right class! This is an excellent class to learn programming too. You will be using the programming environment called Processing. Because of the ease of use of the software, this class will get you visualizing information in no time. Initially, we will use a data set that is made available to the students, but you will get the opportunity to scrape any data online to create informational representations in various forms. This course is designed for students with some or no programming experience.

This class is being developed to be launched for Spring/Summer 2012.
This class will be hosted in partnership with UCSD Extension.
