Best Practices:
- Good choice of colour scheme; it makes the really bad school district stand out
- Good visual layering
- Nice table included when you hover or click on a school district
- Nice map choice because everything outside of the Atlanta area is washed out
- The white borders around each school district help them pop
- Clear instructions provided
- Nice summary text throughout to help tell the story and provide context
- Clearly shows the poor areas of Atlanta (hint: these are the areas with the worst test scores)
Recommended Enhancements:
- Increase the font on the tooltips to make them easier to read
- Use no more than two fonts, preferrably one
- Allow the dashboard to be downloaded; I feel like people are hiding something when they don’t make the data and/or dashboard available for download
