Discover the data.europa academy: Eleventh course, ‘Inspiring
through data visualisation’
There are many ways to create meaningful visuals. The eleventh and
last course of the restructured data.europa academy
[https://data.europa.eu/en/news-events/news/dataeuropa-academy-discover-our-11-open-data-courses]
called ‘Inspiring through data visualisation
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/inspiring-through-data-visualisation]’
will help you rethink how you can inspire others through data
visualisation and motivate yourself to explore different ways of
creating visuals. 

The first lesson ‘Playful machine learning
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/playful-machine-learning]’
showcases several examples of how to use algorithms and machine
learning to create data visualisations. For example, they can pay
tribute to cultural masterpieces as explained in the second lesson
‘Experience Leonardo da Vinci’s Codex Atlanticus
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/experience-leonardo-da-vincis-codex-atlanticus]’.
You will learn how and why users have an influence on the design and
graphics in the lesson ‘Applications to publish graphics in
newsrooms
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/applications-publish-graphics-newsrooms]’.


Data visualisations can create impact in different areas. For example,
COVID-19 data can be used to improve our quality of life as you will
learn in the fourth lesson ‘Visualising open COVID-19 data
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/visualising-open-covid-19-data]’.
The lesson ‘Financial open data from EU institutions
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/financial-open-data-eu-institutions]’
will dive into open financial data and how they support the creation
or update of products and services. Furthermore, open environmental
data can contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals or the EU
Green Deal. This will be showcased in the lesson ‘Environmental open
data from EU institutions
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/environmental-open-data-eu-institutions]’.
Different types of data can also foster innovation and support the
economy, of which examples will be shown in the lesson ‘Open data to
foster the European economy
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/open-data-foster-european-economy]’.


Do you want to get a step beyond data visualisation and connect with
your audience? In the last lesson, ‘Visual narratives to connect
[https://data.europa.eu/en/academy/visual-narratives-connect]’, the
relationship between design and the target audience will be explained.
You will see how you can elaborate on the design phase to connect with
people and why experimentation is important during this creative
process.
