Reflections
The main concept of CinScope is the usage and organized of big data. How the data is organized shapes its impact, so our team and I tried to explore the data in varied expressions. The data visualization is one of the useful and intuitive approaches and we wanted to solve the potential issues of big data, which are cognitive bias and decision error. Apparently, the outcome is positive but why visualized data solve the issues well? I have learned and explored some key insights from this experience.
Firstly, the graph helps brain address information in perception instead of reasoning, enhancing its understanding and memory. Secondly, the brain is particularly sensitive to trends, range, and outliers of clues. It leads users to identify specific highlights that cannot be quickly perceived through reading text. Lastly, contextual indicators establish user confidence in the bigger picture.
To conclude, I believe data visualization is a good way to effectively enhance data persuasiveness, especially when we find key values by addressing big data with our brains rather than computers. For me, CinScope is a good start to the data world.
