In the second episode of Navigate the Narrative: Your Guide to Media Literacy, we’ll analyse how numbers are used, misused, and interpreted in media narratives.
Throughout this episode, Sabrina Caires and Yarrah Muneer speak to Matt Garrow who’s the editorial web developer for The Conversation and Edmund Tran from the Qlik Data Literacy Program to get a further understanding on the importance of data literacy.
We find the answers to the questions you have around the subject, and explain it in a digestible way. We know that data literacy is confusing, we’re figuring out how it works, and how it can be more straightforward.
We bring attention to why data literacy is important in specific relation to reading the news, and give tips on how to improve your understanding of visuals and statistics.
