I attended an online workshop focused on data visualization in evidence synthesis, which introduced various visualization methods used in research reviews. The session covered PRISMA Flow Diagrams, demonstrating how to create them using a ShinyApp to track the screening and selection of studies in systematic reviews. We also discussed evidence tables, which organize and summarize key findings across studies, and explored both qualitative and quantitative visualization tools such as Atlas.ti and Tableau. As an MIS student, I learned how data visualization plays a crucial role in organizing and communicating complex research data clearly and effectively. These skills are highly applicable to my future career, as the ability to visualize data accurately is essential in fields like data analytics, business intelligence, and information systems management.
