CSCI 1109 - M26 - Perception pitfalls

In this module, we focus on how your eyes and brain can quietly distort what you “see” in a chart. Building on the visualization grammar from the previous module, you’ll explore classic perception illusions and then recreate their data-viz cousins: exaggerated trends from truncated axes, 3D and area tricks that blow tiny differences out of proportion, misleading colour scales and maps, and cherry-picked time windows that tell half the story. Along the way, you’ll use Python to build both misleading and honest versions of the same plots, so you can feel the difference, not just hear about it. By the end, you’ll have a practical ethics-and-perception checklist (and a healthy suspicion!) whenever you make or read a data visualization Course module page: https://web.cs.dal.ca/~rudzicz/Teaching/CS...
