Creative Coding For Data Visualizations
The Summer Enrichment Academy (SEA) at UMBC offers middle and high school students a unique, engaging, and intellectually stimulating experience. With a diverse range of one-week workshops and courses, SEA immerses students in the world of science, engineering, technology, the arts, and humanitiesâall led by UMBC faculty, industry professionals, and graduate students.
SEA's college-style experiences are designed to inspire students to think critically, work collaboratively, and challenge themselves in ways they wonât find anywhere else.
In this course, students will explore how to use Python to analyze and visualize data, creating interactive and visually engaging digital projects. The course introduces essential coding skills, focusing on practical applications of data analysis and visualization. Students will work with Python libraries like Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Numpy to manipulate and present data in meaningful ways. By the end of the course, students will have completed their own data-driven visualization projects.
