The Data Visualization Working Group examines the viability of data visualization and mapping strategies to communicate information in multiple ways to a range of constituents. Members of the group take up such issues as: visual possibilities/outcomes for the logic of quantitative methods and the exploratory capacity of qualitative inquiry; identifying the utility of data mapping as a descriptive method for demographic research and the potential of visualization as an interpretive means for identifying research questions and directions for inquiry; and exploring the feasibility of data visualization as an approach to professional development that puts the means of compiling information and communicating evidence in the hands of practitioners.
