This module is the third in a three-part series that is designed to help you use data to identify and address health disparities in your community. In this module, you will look at how data visualization techniques can help you communicate health information and tell a story to different audiences.

The story and activities in this module are inspired by problem-based learning (PBL). Through PBL, teams examine thoughtful, collaborative solutions to workplace problems.
