Same can be said for learning as well, we track a lot in LMS's but are we measuring what matters? Have we defined, and agreed upon, the metrics that will help the business and the performance of the community we serve? Delete the scoop?

This seems like a straightforward question, but it’s proven to be a difficult one to answer. Even visualization researchers – people who think about the subject all day and every day – don’t have a clear definition of what visualization is. Is it synonymous with information graphics? Does visualization have to be computer generated? Does data have to be involved, or can it be abstract? The answers vary depending on who you ask. To me, visualization is a medium. It’s not just an analysis tool nor just a way to prove a point more clearly through data. Visualization is like books. There are different writing styles and categories, there are textbooks and there are novels, and they communicate ideas in different ways for varied purposes. And just like authors who use words to communicate, there are rules that you should always follow and others that are guidelines that you can bend and break... Via Lauren Moss

Visualization is not a medium. It is a process of communication just as speaking or writing are processes, A medium for speak may include airwaves, telephones, or recordings - these are the media that support. In themselves medi are technologies Visualizations are not !

Humankind has been telling complex stories through simple visuals long before you saw your first infographic at Mashable. History is humbling, let's go back in Via Karen Dietz

If you are into data and storytelling, then this brief overview is for you. The slideshare program quickly explains data visualization through time. Of course, how data is displayed -- if done well -- can tell its own story. The next step is to give a presentation as a story, and tell the story of the data as you are doing so. Until then, enjoy this quick historical review of visual storytelling. This review was written by Karen Dietz for her curated content on business storytelling at www.scoop.it/t/just-story-it Delete the scoop?

Data Visualization is driven by data. Its form is often derived from optimizing the efficiency of inputting data (and information about that data) into a human brain. It is a very pragmatic practice, built around numbers and logic. And yet it is beautiful. It evokes emotions. It can be aesthetically pleasing, or hideous. It communicates complex concepts and provokes thought. It is consumed for enjoyment. Some visualizations even share similarities with poetry. There are several stages in the life cycle of data visualizations, and while the core of the practice is driven by rational thinking, any number of stages in the process have opportunities for subjective decisions or artistic interpretations...
