Dellyssa Edinboro 

Assistant Professor - Cultural and Ethnic Studies (Bellevue College)

 

This presentation will discuss the role of data visualization in the classroom by looking at the design of and impact of a four-week faculty workshop on data visualization at Bellevue College (Washington). This four-week workshop utilized Du Bois's Data Portraits: Visualizing Black America (2018), an edited volume by Whitney Battle-Baptiste and Britt Rusert, as a point of departure for participants to engage with digital humanities and data visualization and reflect on how their teaching practice can utilize data visualization to foster students' engagement and cultural awareness. This presentation reinforces data visualization's role in reimagining and enriching teaching and learning.
