Florence Nightingale Day, 2023
The Power of Visualization
I came to this event because I’m really into visualization. I like how you don’t need to use words to describe something. Instead of writing a whole essay to tell you something, you tell it through graphs, and it’s a kind of art. Like, that graph that [Florence Nightingale] made for the diseases and causes of death is amazing. (Grade 10 student)

Citizen Data Scientists: Opportunities and Challenges for IR
One of the best conference presentations I have ever been too, hands down. I immediately referred my IR team to watch this session. This would be a GREAT session for Institutional Leadership.
This was a great presentation!!!
Great presentation! I would love to have it available to show the administration at my university.
Superb presentation!! Great analogies! Excellent presentation! Thank you, Aurora and Tony!
One of the best at this year’s AIR Forum. Very engaging and informative. Loved the Car Talk/Click & Clack jokes.
This was by far my favorite session of the conference! Great insight, fun analogy, and excellent comments in the chat.
An idea that came out of this is an AIR training for “citizen data scientists” as a sort of primer for them to learn the basics of aggregating data, etc. Want to be sure this idea gets to the AIR folks.
Using the car analogy was a great strategy! … Great comments..Will be sharing with my colleagues! Thank you.
