“…arrative visualization combines information visualization with storytelling techniques (Obie et al, 2019), guiding the viewer through a particular selected set of information (Lankow et al, 2012) to help detect causal relationships (Roels, Baeten, & Signer, 2017). Visual stories consist of several visualized story pieces, incl.…”

Purpose: Data is collected from all aspects of our lives. Yet, data alone is useless unless converted into information and, ultimately, knowledge. Since data analysts, in most cases, are not the ones in charge of making decisions based on their findings, communicating the results to stakeholders is crucial to passing on information of data-driven insights. That is where the discipline of data storytelling comes into play. Often, data storytelling is considered an effective data visualization. Creating data stories is a structured approach to communicating data insights as an interplay of the three elements data, visuals, and narrative. Sharing data-driven insights to support better business decisions require data storytellers skilled in the “art of storytelling”. Design/Method/Approach: In this paper, the authors discuss the use of data storytelling in business to communicate data to stakeholders for improving decision-making. The findings are derived from (1) an extensive literature review and (2) a qualitative analysis of 13 expert interviews with people incorporating data storytelling into their daily work within their jobs in international companies. Findings: These interviews revealed the importance of providing a flexible tool to support knowledge sharing for people communicating complex data to internal stakeholders. Combining literature with qualitative research enabled the authors to create the "data storytelling cheat sheet", a guide for practical data storytelling. Theoretical Implications: Theories like the Psychological distance or the idea of the theory of dual processing dual are used to base our research idea on. There was no new theory built in this paper. Practical Implications: One of the results is an implementation systematic cheat sheet that helps practitioners to implement data storytelling in their daily business. Originality/Value: The theory of data storytelling is overwhelming the first time to use and based on an empirical study with experts in the field a guideline for hands on use was developed under a based on a cleanly defined empirical study. Research Limitations/Future Research: The paper focus on internal data storytelling – maybe with external stakeholders it might be slightly different. The results the data communication part in any data analytics project. Paper Type: Empirical JEL Classification: D7, D8

“…Data visualisation emerged in journalism because of big data sets using visualisation and narrative techniques to convey complex information and the rise of "prosumer-based media" (Sewchurran and Hofmeyr, 2020). Though not new, the contemporary form of visualisation involves "augmented reality presentations which are based on big data sets" (Roels et al, 2017). Data visualisation is considered unsuccessful if it fails to engage, entertain and retain audiences (Roels et al, 2017), who only skim and scan through information.…”

Contemporary visual communication entails "signs, images, typography, infographics; and visual perception, including illustrations photos, infographics such as graphs, charts, diagrams; multimedia content such as videos, clips, installations, flash animation, slide shows, flash presentations; and modern visual content, like memes and selfies" (Muratova et al, 2019).…”

The pervasiveness of digital technologies is resulting in myriad problems that must be constantly dealt with in journalism education. Although the problems posed by digital storytelling in journalism have been recorded, there are no significant solutions sought for developing economies. The study aims to develop a model of training for digital storytelling in journalism applicable to developing economies and struggling higher education institutions A qualitative integrative literature review of journal articles was conducted to identify and synthesise recurrent themes indicating the nature of the challenges faced. Most reiterated are inadequate new media and visualisation skills among both students and faculty and limited research on the understanding of visual knowledge representations, challenges of upholding journalism ethics amid information saturation, failure to adapt curricula to the rapid change in digital spaces, and access. The model proposes using less expensive hardware tools available to students such as laptops, smartphones and freely available software to compose digital stories and edit the content to fit multiple channels. The model provides a guide for imparting basic digital storytelling skills in resource-constrained environments and adds to the body of knowledge in innovative digital storytelling in journalism. Importantly, the precipitous speed at which journalism is conducted and transformed requires innovative approaches to keep pace with the multimedia skills required.

“…source code, geographical information or raw numerical data) remain difficult to present in established presentation tools. This is addressed by tools such as Slithy [43], Hans Rosling's Gapminder 6 , or MindXpres [31] which offers dynamic source code visualisation [29,30] and interactive data-driven storytelling based on raw data [27,28]. Established presentation solutions typically store content for a single presentation in a monolithic file.…”

Mainstream presentation tools such as Microsoft PowerPoint were originally built to mimic physical media like photographic slides and still exhibit the same characteristics. However, the state of the art in presentation tools shows that more recent solutions start to go beyond the classic presentation paradigms. For instance, presentations are becoming increasingly non-linear, content is quickly evolving beyond simple text and images and the way we author our presentations is becoming more collaborative. Nevertheless, existing presentation content models are often based on assumptions that do not apply to the current state of presentations any more, making them incompatible for some use cases and limiting the potential of end-user presentation solutions. In order to support state-of-the-art presentation functionality, we rethink the concept of a presentation and introduce a conceptual framework for presentation content. We then present a new content model for presentation solutions based on the Resource-Selector-Link (RSL) hypermedia metamodel. We further discuss an implementation of our model and show some example use cases. We conclude by outlining how design choices in the model address currently unmet needs with regards to extensibility, content reuse, collaboration, semantics, user access management, non-linearity, and context awareness, resulting in better support for the corresponding end-user functionality in presentation tools.
