Share your insights and feedback with a few members thinking through specific challenges:
A member is looking for resources or ideas for a low-tech dataviz exercise (using paper, markers, pens, etc.) to run with co-workers. The group is already quite data/visualization literate, but the goal is to design something that challenges their assumptions and beliefs a bit. Has anyone here participated in, run, or come across an exercise like this that you’d recommend?
