six fundamental principles of analytical
design
 Show comparisons, contrasts, differences.
 Show causality, mechanism, explanation, systematic
  structure.
 Show multivariate data; that is, show more than 1 or 2
  variables.
 Completely integrate
  words, numbers, images, diagrams.
 Thoroughly describe the evidence. Provide a detailed
  title, indicate the authors and sponsors, document the
  data sources, show complete measurement scales, point
  out relevant issues.
 Analytical presentations ultimately stand or fall
  depending on the quality, relevance, and integrity of
  their content.
 The purpose of an evidence presentation is to
 assist thinking, and that these six principles of
 analytical design are derived from the
 principles of analytical thinking. (BE, p. 137).
 He claims that these design principles are
 universal and not tied to any particular
 language, culture, style, century, gender, or
 technology of information display.
PowerPoint Is Evil
 Ina business setting, a PowerPoint slide
 typically shows 40 words, which is about eight
 seconds' worth of silent reading material. With
 so little information per slide, many, many
 slides are needed. Audiences consequently
 endure a relentless sequentiality, one damn
 slide after another.
 Visual
       reasoning usually works more effectively
 when relevant information is shown side by
 side.
Tufte emphatically
   Do not write bullets with incomplete sentences.

   Remember the journalism rule: include
    who, what, where, when and why

   Calculate the knowledge level, work and educational
    backgrounds of your audience
COLOR!
 Avoidcolors that dont match.
 Nature provides suggestions
 Remember to use the theme color available in
  Microsoft products.
Sparklines


 tinyvisual device Tufte calls a sparkline. Its
 intended to convey a bunch of data, perhaps a
 couple of hundred numbers worth, in a space
 no larger than would be required for a couple
 of words, like this bit of medical monitoring:
Sparklines
Sparklines
Gapminder
 Africais not a country
 Child mortality
