Information Design for Social Good
About This Course
Living in the age of data and constantly bombarded by a huge amount of information daily. The ability to distil, translate and present masses of data into meaningful visualisations and effective visual presentations that improve the overall reading and viewing experiences, communication, comprehension, and decision-making would require the conceptual understanding of information design principles, methods, and techniques. In Information Design for Social Good, participants will examine the way how human process and encode textual and visual information, apply the visualisation process and techniques in conceptualising and designing visual narratives, explore the fundamental practices of structuring and representing information visually using graphs, tables, charts, diagrams, maps, etc., and learn to translate complex information and relevant research findings into digestible visual narratives that stimulate attention and engagement.
