Student data wizards unite! 🧙
We challenge you to impress our judges with your skills and creativity!
Data visualization is the translation of data into a visual medium such as a map, chart, infographic, 3D-model, or even art. It's also a fun, creative, and effective way to communicate complex ideas through shape, color, size, intensity, and more. Captivate us with your visuals, tell a compelling story, tackle real-world problems, build skills, and have fun.
Judges look for creativity, clarity, and visual interest when judging entries.
