In this microcredential, you will meet and work with a dedicated course facilitator who will support your learning and engagement with teaching resources designed by the lead academic and team of experts from the Faculty of Engineering and IT.
This microcredential is structured into four modules. Each module comprises self-study materials and facilitated online sessions. The modules and key topics covered are:
- Module 1 - Chart-based visualisations of complex data types
- Module 2 - Hierarchical data visualisations & high-dimensional visualisation techniques
- Module 3 - Interactive data visualisations and user-centred design
- Module 4 - Visualising changing data and comparing data sets.
Each week (during weeks 1 to 8) you will participate in an online session where you will have the chance to apply what you've learned, ask questions and hear from other participants who are taking the course with you. The workshops are led by the course facilitator.
Weeks nine and ten are planned to give you time to complete the final assignment, with support and scheduled Q&A sessions provided.
Course delivery
This microcredential includes weekly, live, one-hour online tutorials and one-hour weekly Q&A sessions facilitated by an expert UTS academic, supporting self-study and online learning activities.
Case studies of real-world applications illustrate applications of key tools and techniques. The workshop sessions focus on hands-on activities and examples. Regular formative quizzes throughout the microcredential will allow participants to gauge their progress.
Tutorials will be scheduled for one-hour sessions every Wednesday evening, and live Q&A sessions every Friday evening. Final dates and times for live sessions will be confirmed with registered participants prior to the course starting. Note: recordings of all live sessions will be made available for reference.
