The visualization I found is titled “Technology’s Impact on
Education” and does a good job at explaining how much professors use technology
in their classrooms. It also shows students study habits, the devices they own,
and how much of a distraction technology is in the classroom. The visualization
reveals that students are becoming increasingly unengaged in lectures because
professors rely on technology instead of actually teaching. It also shows how
education is breaking the barriers of a classroom because students more
students are deciding to take online courses each year.
The number shows that almost all professors are
incorporating social media in their teaching. I was surprised to learn that
seventy percent of students use a digital device to take notes rather than
taking notes by hand. Eighty-six percent of students claim to study better with
tablets, which is shocking to me because I feel like it would be completely
opposite. I was also surprised to learn that most students have a printer.
The visualization is very appealing to the eye and I like
that the use of numbers. The most important thing about the visualization is
that it gets the point across that technology has effected education in a
positive way. The visualization also highlights that technology isn’t too much
of a distraction, which I think is the most important thing.
