We had three community partners coming to the class (in person or virtually) and shared with us about their projects. I have decided to work with CSforALL. It is an educational project which currently has around 500 members in the community. It is trying to push computer science education to k-12 students.
What are the questions they are researching or investigating with data?
The project we might be working on will be data visualization of their current membership. They wanted to know who is in the community. How many of them impact on how many students, etc. They also wanted to reinforce the connection in the local area, when the user signs in he will be able to see who can they be in contact with in the community. And also they would love to transfer into active memberships.
Please provide possible vis sketches and/or notes from your exchanges with your community partner.
Word Cloud - Looking for high frequency terms in the data and targeting the characteristics of the members
Geography Map - Having better understanding of distribution of our members
Relationship Map - Understanding the local connections between the members
I have also followed up with CSforAll and asked them a few questions for phase two project and just need to synthesizing the insights from there.
