The team regression exercise we did in class is the perfect example to express to you my ability to convert relevant information into various mathematical forms or graphs to be exact. We collected four different types of quantitative data from six of our fellow classmates. We represented the divide in each person’s data by coloring their six rows of collected data. In total there was eleven sections of data, but we have twelve members in our group so one person must have been gone the day we did this exercise. The type of data we had to collect were the miles from home, money spent on food, age in months, and hours spent in class. The four graphs we made represent all the categorizes compared to each other in the form of a scatter plot. The graphs could have looked more accurate if people gave us the correct information, but due to some people being confused, out graphs are a little off, but they still give an approximate idea of what they should look like. Our graphs show that everyone has either high or low amounts of everything, no inbetween. These graphs represent how people spend money and time in college.
My group The Lost and Found made an incredible infographic for our Sense of Place presentation. Our goal was to teach teens to not drive distracted, so we represented that goal visually by making each page look like a real iPhone cell phone. We went so far to add the wifi bars, the battery and percent charged graphics on the top of the phone. We added text messages that were sent from our group explaining what and why we were doing this particular project and it all looked like a real phone receiving text messages. The last two slides, we added picture of graphs from our survey beta test that the other group took before and after playing our game. The first graph represents how the team Novum Orbis feels about how knowledgeable they think they are on the dangers of distracted driving before and after playing our game. The graphs represented in the form of a bar graph that before, 60% of the players thought they were very knowledgeable of the dangers, but after playing our game, 35% of the players said they felt knowledgeable about the dangers. The data we received was from our fellow classmates and they might not have taken the game as serious as we hoped, and that might be why the bar graphs representation seems off. The other graph we made shows the other team’s feelings on how effectively on how our game effectively addressed the issue of texting while driving. We decided to represent the responsive in a bar graph on its side. We decided to place the graph that way because it was more logical in the way the graph looks more visually appealing and contrasting to the graphs before it.
