  1. Dividing the data<\/strong>: Hidden insights are obtained when your data is segmented more. The more you segment your data, the better insights you obtain. In the video, the story of African sub-Saharan region having the lowest GDP vs Child Survival rate is completely different when the data is segmented country wise for that region. We realize that after segmentation, countries like Mauritius has a much higher ratio (than average) as compared to other countries in the same region.<\/li>\n
  2. Treating each data point separately<\/strong>: Each data point can be associated with a different problem and after carefully analyzing the data point, you can provide solutions accordingly. For e.g. the same solution can\u2019t be applied to the poorest of Nigeria v\/s the richest of South Africa.<\/li>\n
  3. Usage of Idioms<\/strong>: The idiom you use for visualization should immediately provide you the information that you are trying to convey and what your chart is measuring.<\/li>\n
  4. Checking your legibility: <\/strong>Run it by someone who has never seen your visualization, and ask\u00a0them to tell you what the chart is supposed to be illustrating. The longer they take, the worse you’ve done.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
